Porcupines 
Family favorite from Ginnie Goheen.   
Kids loved the concept of a porcupine with the rice  
sticking out from all sides of the meatball.

     Often served with either noodles or boiled 
	potatoes. The quantities in the recipe were never really written down or 
	specific.  A part of it was just cooking sense and when the mixture 
	felt right.  The quantities shown are a guess.  |
