Pineapple Meatballs

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
2. 2
   First, make the meatballs: combine all meatball ingredients (there's 7, beef to garlic powder) in a bowl and mix well; shape into 1-inch balls.
3. 3
   Brown them in a nonstick frying pan (I do it in 3 batches) until browned all over; drain on paper towel then place in a large ungreased casserole dish.
4. 4
   To make sauce, combine brown sugar and cornstarch in a large saucepan, then whisk in the 1-3/4 cup pineapple juice/water combination until mixture is smooth.
5. 5
   Add vinegar, soy sauce and worcestershire sauce; stir.
6. 6
   Simmer, uncovered, on medium-low heat for about 8 minutes, or until thickened.
7. 7
   Pour sauce over meatballs and add pineapple tidbits; stir gently to combine until meatballs are coated with sauce.
8. 8
   Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.
