These smoky and sweet meatballs are one of my most requested appetizers. They are always a hit, and I rarely have leftovers.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Super easy, these cranberry orange meatballs are perfect for any party. Slightly sweet and tangy, there's a subtle citrus flavor. The contrast between the savory meatballs and the sweet sauce is yummy. The cranberry isn't overly noticeable but does add a little holiday flair. Use your favorite frozen meatballs to whip up this simple appetizer recipe. Turkey or chicken meatballs could also be used.
