This recipe makes the gravy from the seasoning packet included in the Rice-a-Roni, so there's no additional expense for the gravy. Got to make a dollar holler! :)
Ingredients:
1 (6 7/8 ounce) package beef rice-a-roni
1 lb ground beef
1 egg, beaten
2 1/2 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons cornstarch in 3 tablespoons cold water
Directions:
1. Set seasoning mix aside.
2. Combine the rice mix and the egg.
3. Add the raw beef in a large bowl and mix together with your hands.
4. Roll into meatballs (about an inch and a half).
5. In a large skillet, brown the meatballs on all sides.
6. Meanwhile, mix the seasoning packet and boiling water.
7. Pour over the meatballs and simmer for 30 minutes.
8. Pour the cornstarch/water mixture into the skillet and simmer for 2 minutes.
