    Momma's Homemade Porcupines

    2 lbs lean ground beef
    1 cup white long grain rice
    24oz low sodium crushed tomatoes

    Mix ground beef and rice in a bowl and roll into 1 1/2 to 2 inch balls. Bring tomatoes to a boil and add meatballs. Boil for 1 hour or until rice pokes out of meatballs and is done.

    Makes 8 servings, 16 meatballs, 2 meatballs per serving. 210 calories when using fresh stewed tomatoes.

    Holy over cooked beef batman!

    As for answering OP's question.... any sort of cubed up chicken served over riced cauliflour, then seasoned anyway you want, seems to be one of my goto meals lately.
