Sweet and Sour Something

This is great sauce for Sweet and Sour Meatballs which I often take in a slow cooker to parties, or Sweet and Sour Chicken which I like to make at home. I bet it even works well with Pork.

Serve it whichever way over rice, and you've got a meal that can't be beat.

Ingredients
1 cup sugar
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup vinegar 1 green pepper, cut in strips
1 cup pineapple juice
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/3 cup soy sauce
8 ounce can of pineapple chunks, drained

Instructions
Combine all ingredients except the pineapple.
Cook, stirring, until thickened.
Add pineapple just before serving.
