DEAR SOS: I remember a dish from my childhood called porcupine meatballs. I believe they were made with ground beef, rice and tomato soup.

DEAR ELIZABETH: Here’s one of many updated versions of this old favorite.
Combine beef, egg, milk, paprika, salt and rice. Roll into 2-inch balls. Melt butter in skillet over low heat. Raise heat to medium, add meatballs and brown on all sides, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Combine tomatoes, water, teriyaki sauce and onion in large saucepan. Bring to boil over medium-high heat. Drop meatballs into tomato mixture. Cover pan and simmer until sauce is thick, 40 minutes to 1 hour.
