Hawaiian Meatballs with Twice Baked Potatoes

 These Hawaiian Meatballs are an absolute favorite throughout our entire family-extended loved ones included.  Plus they are soooo very simple to make.

Then I thought I would make some twice baked potatoes for my first time.  Oh My Goodness!  They were so good!  Served with a side salad-this was a super nummy, yummy meal!  
Hawaiian Meatballs

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 lb sausage
1 can spam(I use my food chopper to chop into tiny pieces)
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups quick cooking oats
1 medium onion, diced
6 shakes soy sauce

Mix and shape into balls no more than 2 Inches.  Place in 9 x 13 inch pan. 

Sauce
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
1 tsp dry mustard
juice from large can of pineapple chunks

mix well and pour over meatballs.  Top with pineapple chunks.  Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.  Baste.  Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 30 minutes.  Baste.  Continue baking for another 30 minutes.  Baste one more time before serving.


Twice baked Potatoes
Wash and pierce 6 potatoes.  Bake at 375 degrees for 1 hour or until tender.  Once cooled enough to handle(right away using baking mitt) cut a thin slice off the top of each potato length wise.  Scoop out the pulp leaving thin shells.
In large bowl mix 1/4 cup butter and pulp.  Stir in 1 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup ranch dressing, a few shakes of garlic salt, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.  Spoon into shells.  Sprinkle with cheese.  Place on baking sheet and continue baking at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes.  Top with bacon and green onions.  Enjoy!
