Sweet & Sour Meatballs

I use pre made frozen meatballs for this recipe.

Sauce:

saute':
green, yellow and red peppers; chopped
white onion, chopped
carrots, thinly sliced
Set aside.

In a pot combine all ingredients and cook until thickened :
1 C. ketchup
1/2 C. brown sugar
1/4 t. cornstarch
1/4 C. white vinegar
1 t. mustard
1 t. soy sauce
1/2 t. crushed red pepper flakes
2 T. pineapple juice

Check for right sweet (brown sugar) and sour (vinegar). Adjust to taste. If you like a lot of sauce, double the sauce recipe. When sauce is thick add meatballs (for my family of 4 I usually add 20-25 meatballs, but you can add as much as you want) and vegetables back into pot and simmer until bubbling. (if you're using frozen meatballs, keep in sauce until cooked through) Serve over rice
