Blue Ribbon Recipe by

This is a wonderful recipe for parties and get-togethers of all kinds and they always disappear so fast! I made these several years ago for my daughter's wedding reception, and people thought that they were absolutely delicious and wanted the recipe. I haven't made them in a while, but I've decided to make them for an upcoming church dinner, thanks to some suggestions from the great cooks here at JAP. You can use them as an appetizer or a meal served over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. I hope that y'all enjoy these yummy meatballs.

    This recipe can easily be doubled or even tripled if you need to make a lot for a party or other get-together. The frozen meatballs save time and are very easy. I prefer the Great Value (Walmart) brand over the others that I've tried. Enjoy!
