Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Place all ingredients for the meatballs in the large bowl and mix together.
Form into golf sized balls and place evenly on a baking sheet, without have them touch each other.
Bake for 15 minutes.
While the meatballs are baking, place all ingredients for the sweet and sour sauce in a blender and blend until smooth.
Remove the meatballs once they are finished baking.
Pour the sauce into a large saucepan and heat over medium high heat until it comes to a boil.
Add the meatballs and bell pepper, then reduce the heat to medium until everything comes to a simmer.
Simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped green onions before serving.
