The meatballs can be prepared in advance and refrigerated, cooking time does not include browning the meatballs. I sometimes add in a one or two cans of drained of sliced mushrooms to the soup/salad dressing mixture, but that is optional :)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lbs ground beef
1 egg
1 onion, finely chopped
2 -3 minced fresh garlic cloves (optional)
2 -3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
2/3 cup soft breadcrumbs
5 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (or to taste)
2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups cooked white rice
2 1/2 cups sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
2 teaspoons caraway seeds (optional)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
3/4 cup thousand island dressing (or to taste)
2 cups swiss cheese, shredded (or to taste)

Steps:

  • Set oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a 13 x9-inch baking pan.
  • In a bowl combine egg, fresh garlic, Parmesan cheese, onion, bread crumbs, seasoning salt and pepper; mix well to combine, then mix in cooked rice.
  • Shape into about 18-20 meatballs, then place onto the 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
  • Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until browned; drain fat.
  • Arrange the sauerkraut over the meatballs, then sprinkle the caraway seeds over the saurkraut.
  • In a bowl, combine the soup with the salad dressing (for an extra cheesy taste, I sometimes add in a few tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese to the soup mixture) then spread the soup mixture on top of the saurkraut in the baking dish.
  • Cover with foil and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until meatballs are no longer pink.
  • Uncover, sprinkle with Swiss cheese.
  • Bake for another 10 minutes longer.
