Directions
Spicy Rice Meatballs, These are really good either straight from the pan or thawed and reheated I don’t think many meat lovers will miss the meat in these I just ate them plain, but you could freeze them with sauce and reheat the whole recipe , I made a few changes to this recipe Instead of breadcrumbs used crushed herb and garlic croutons I also used the crushed croutons mixed with grated parmesan cheese to coat the rice balls instead of wheat germ They turned out delicious! However I didn’t like them with spaghetti, I think they were great on their own, or would go well with some kind of mushroom sauce I had no problems with the rice balls falling apart, and I chopped my onions by hand I would suggest cooking them until the outside is nice and crispy, as the taste and texture is much better that way , I made a few changes to this recipe Instead of breadcrumbs used crushed herb and garlic croutons I also used the crushed croutons mixed with grated parmesan cheese to coat the rice balls instead of wheat germ They turned out delicious!
