This recipe can be baked at 350 degrees F for 2 hours, but I made it in the crockpot to save energy and to keep my kitchen cool in the summer. It also uses brown rice instead of white.

I have never tried using rice with meatballs. That is an interesting combination to make meatballs. Thanks for the recipe.
