This appetizer of teriyaki pineapple meatballs changed so many times due to my family's suggestions that it eventually became a main course. I think the homemade sauce sets these meatballs apart. —Evette Nowicki, Oak Harbor, Washington

Ingredients

2 cans (8 ounces each) pineapple chunks
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped sweet yellow pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped sweet red pepper
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pound lean ground beef
SAUCE:
1/4 cup canola oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons vinegar
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
Green onions, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. Drain pineapple, reserving 1/4 cup juice; set pineapple aside. In a bowl, combine onion, peppers, bread crumbs, ginger, salt and reserved pineapple juice. Crumble beef over mixture and mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1-in. balls.

Place next 6 ingredients in a blender; cover and process 1 minute. Place 2 tablespoons sauce in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Add meatballs. Pour remaining sauce over meatballs. Bake, uncovered, until meat is no longer pink, 18-20 minutes. Place 1 pineapple chunk on each meatball; secure with a toothpick. If desired, garnish with green onions.
