Porcupines
I have Porcupines in the oven. Been making them for 55 years & they sounded good tonight. I doubled the recipe because leverovers always get eaten at our house. I use my Kitchen Aid mixer to mix it up.
1# ground beef
Chopped onion
Salt & pepper
1/2 cup rice
1 cup milk
Combine above. Mixture will be sloppy. Make large meatballs & lay in lightly greased oven pan. Can be double layered if necessary. Top with a can of condensed tomato soup. Do not dilute. Bake covered about 1 hour or so in 350 oven. 2# made 15 meatballs.

A favourite of mine too.
Though my recipe does not add milk or any liquid to the meat mixture. Once formed I brown in a deep skillet, then add the tomato soup.
Sometimes for a switch up, I use Cream of Mushroom soup!!

Do you cook the rice first or is it instant style??
I made teriyaki style with leftover cooked rice, teriyaki glaze, and pineapple tidbits... can also use sweet and sour type sauce/vegetables. Can then put over more rice! Next to everything bagels, I miss rice the most in my low carb life style.

I made these often when my children were growing up. I recently made them for a daughter who had a knee replacement. She loved her 'blast from the past'.
No milk in mine and I add Worcestershire sauce to the soup. They are so cute!

I would think instant rice works then less baking time.
