We always eat these on New Year's, but they're great anytime of year! You can find this recipe pretty much anywhere, but I got mine from my mom.
Ingredients:
- 1 jar of Heinz chili sauce (doesn't necessarily have to be Heinz, but it tastes the best!)
- 1 jar of grape jelly
- Meatballs (however many you would like)
Put the chili sauce and jelly together in a large pot, heat until the jelly is melted and sauce is smooth. Stir often. Add frozen meatballs; heat until meatballs are thawed. Let simmer for 3 hours.
Changes:
Instead of buying meatballs and thawing them, I made my own!
How to Make Your Own Meatballs:
- 1 and a half tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cup of crumbs
- 1 lb. lean hamburger
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 egg
This often makes an appearance during the holiday season in our family too! I made my own meatballs tonight, actually, but I used ground pork instead of ground beef. My end result was Sweet and Sour Meatballs over rice.
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm....I usually serve this over rice as well, but my sister-in-law makes it as an appetizer or a snack.
