Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 3/4 cup plain bread crumbs
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Sliced green olives with pimento
  • About 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 cup apricot jelly
  • 1 cup chili sauce

Directions

With a fork or clean hands, gently combine the meat, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Shape into 1-inch balls. Press a green olive slice into the ball to make "eyes". Melt the butter in a large saute pan and brown the meatballs on all sides. Drain off the fat. In a bowl, stir together the jelly and chili sauce and pour over the meatballs. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes over medium to low heat, turning the meatballs regularly.

    I gave this a "good" rating because I haven't actually eaten this and I don't want to bring the rating up or down.

    It actually sounds like it would taste pretty good but the picture that the website chose is just too disgusting in appearance. There's a borderline between fun-gross and eww-gross and this is hovering on that line. I think the concept should be reworked a bit - or at least the picture should be changed. At first glance I thought it was actually a fish eye on some horribly mangled fish and realized after a millisecond or two that it was actually a meatball.
