Hi Everyone! Well Superbowl Sunday has come and gone by now, so Day 7 will not happen this year.

Instead of covering day 7, I will share a recipe submitted by a subscriber instead. Thanks Traci!

Porcupine Meatballs

1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup uncooked long-grain rice
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 large can (15 ounces) tomato sauce (I use tomato soup a lot of times)
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce (optional)
1/2 cup water

Mix the ground beef, rice, 1/2 cup of water, the chopped onion, , salt, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and pepper. Shape the mixture by tablespoons into 1 1/2-inch meatballs. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet and cook the meatballs over medium heat until brown; drain off excess grease. Add tomato sauce, remaining 1/2 cup water, and Worcestershire sauce; heat to boiling. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 35 to 45 minutes.

If you wrap these in cabbage leaves, and pour the tomato sauce over the cabbage leaves, you have golabki.
