Dr. Pepper Meatballs
Dr. Pepper Meatballs are here! If you are finding a savory and flavorful food to eat with rice and pasta, these are right up your street. They’re ground beef meatballs cooked in the sauce of ketchup, Dr. Pepper, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and onion powder, salt and pepper. Ready in 30 minutes, I prefer these meatballs for busy week day dinners. And you, ready to give them a go?
