Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
1 egg
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons chopped green peppers (optional)
1/2 cup rice
1 (26 ounce) jar Prego spaghetti sauce
1 -2 teaspoon chili powder

Directions

1

Mix together: beef, bread crumbs, egg, salt, paprika, and green pepper.
2

Form into balls using about 1/3 cup meat mixture for each.
3

Roll each ball in rice to coat lightly, then flatten somewhat to form thick patties.
4

Heat Prego and chili powder in deep saucepan.
5

Add patties to sauce, making sure there is sauce all over the patties (otherwise your rice will not cook well and will be crunchy--yuk).
6

Cook covered over medium heat until done (about 45 minutes), turning patties as needed to keep well covered in sauce.
