Turkey Porcupines
this is a kind of turkey/rice meatball

1 lb. ground turkey
1/2 c. rice (I use the Organic Harvest Medley from Costco- brown, wild & red rice)
1/4 t. pepper
1/2 t. celery salt
2 T. chopped green peppers
1 T. grated onion
1 clove minced garlic
4 cups tomato juice or V-8 (I used half fresh tomatoes pureed in my blender and V-8 juice)
6 whole cloves of garlic
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 T. sugar
Mix together turkey, rice, salt pepper, celery salt, green pepper, onion, and garlic. Form into 18 small balls. (I use a small/medium cookie/ice cream scoop- makes it so easy) Mix tomato juice and the rest of the ingredients in large skillet. Add meatballs. Cover and simmer 1.5 hours (less if using white rice) or until rice is done. Turn meatballs halfway through if not covered by sauce.
