This by far was one of my favorite recipes that I have prepared from this site. I followed the recipe almost exactly as written. Changes I made were I baked the meatballs as one of the reviewers noted and I added green onions and a bit of bread crumbs to the ground beef. ooh I also doubled the sauce as one reviewer said. It tastes so great over the rice. I would give this recipe more stars if I could!!

This was something diffrent to make and it turned out really good. I do agree with some other reviewers that the meatballs could be a little better, but it is a great start. Next time I'm just gonna make the sauce and veggies and use shrimp or chicken for my meat.

OMG...so good and so easy. Even my 7 year old cleaned her plate, and my husband had to step away from the table because he couldn't stop eating. Would also be good with chicken or pork. This is definitely going in our regular rotation!

I made this recipe almost as is and my husband and I loved it. I will definitely make again. I didn't see the need for the oil - so I omitted that and I steamed the veggies a bit before adding to the sauce because we prefer them a bit softer. Next time I may try to reduce the amount of sugar. We watch our calories and 1 cup is a lot of sugar. But overall excellent recipe and will definitely make again.

Absolutely awseome! You can double the sauce as most here have suggested, or use half pork, half beef, (that's what I did...excellent) but whatever you do, make it! Your loved ones will think you've become a chef! (I know mine did.....now to live up to this ..hmmmmmm) LOVED IT!! Rob

Very, very good! I used red peppers because they were on sale and threw in some broccoli that I had on hand. It was very colorful and really tasty. I will definately make this again and will try it with chicken soon. My stepdaughter couldn't believe it was homemade except she said she knew it was better than any of the local restaurants! Thanks QUIKSMYLE!!

This was fairly good. I made 2 batches. 1st batch had way to much sweet and sour sauce and not quite enough of everything else. So the 2nd batch was made with this adjustment..increased ground beef to 2lbs and 1 addtional egg and 1 tsp minced garlic. Increase pineapple juice just to 1 1/3 cup, decresased vinegar to 2 tbsp, pineapple to 2 cups, 2 bell peppers, 1 whole carrot and 1 whole onion. And that worked very nicely. That's how I remember sweet and sour meatballs when I lived in Guam.
