Made these
the other night. They were really good! I also used about 5 drops of lemon
essential oil instead of lemon juice. Remember to only use high quality
essential oils in cooking. Also if you use lemon oil, add it right before the
meatballs (because oils evaporate while cooking).
Ingredients:
1 Bag (at
least 24 oz.) Frozen Meatballs (you can use homemade meatballs if you like, I
already posted my favorite meatball recipe earlier on this blog)
2 Cans (14
oz. each) Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
1 (18 oz.)
Bottle Barbeque Sauce
2
Tablespoons Brown Sugar
1 Tablespoon
Lemon Juice
Directions:
- Bake meatballs according to directions on bag
(usually 30 minutes at 350°).
- In a saucepan over low heat, combine the
cranberry sauce, barbeque sauce, brown sugar, and lemon juice. Simmer and
stir until smooth (about 20-30 minutes). Add cooked meatballs and simmer for about
10 minutes or until desired consistency.
- Serve over rice.
You can also make this in a slow cooker, Add sauce ingredients and stir until combined. Add the frozen meatballs and stir until coated. Cook for 2 to 3 hours on high.
