This Sunday, I tried a new recipe. Actually, it was so easy that Chris made it while I was in the shower. Yes, girls, it really is that easy!
I wasn't sure how it would turn out. But let me give you some insight into the popularity of these tiny gems: Evie and her little friend Andrew (who is about sixteen months old) inhaled the meatballs. Chris and I tried to figure it out yesterday, and we figure they ate about five apiece! That's a lot for their toddler tummies!
The adults liked them, too. The meatballs were more savory than sweet, which surprised me, and they made a great addition to the buffet spread! Chris made them in the crock pot, so they even kept warm on the drive to the party.
Ultimate Party Meatballs
1 16-ounce can Ocean Spray® Jellied Cranberry Sauce
1 12-ounce bottle Heinz® Chili Sauce
1 2-pound bag frozen, pre-cooked, cocktail-size meatballs
Place meatballs in a slow cooker. Combine sauces and pour over meatballs. Cover and cook 4 hours on HIGH.
Alternatively, you can combine sauces in a large saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring until smooth. Add meatballs. Cover and cook for 15 minutes or until meatballs are heated through, stirring occasionally.
Makes 30 appetizer servings. Enjoy! You can find more easy party recipes and planning tips here.

Yum! It must be something in the air. I used my slow-cooker today, too.
Pork roast dropped in there at 6:30am = delicious pulled pork supper at 6pm. Plus happy hubby leftovers.
I think it's the weather - perfect for slow cooking.
This sounds so delicious. And I just got a new slow-cooker!!! :)
Oh Sara, I am so glad you tried this recipe. I saw it, the other day, and wondered if it really was good. I was wanting to make it for an upcoming party! Thanks. Now I will definitely make these meatballs. Thanks for sharing. Don't forget about the TMTT giveaway, next week. I don't want you to miss out.
