Tangy Sweet & Sour Meatballs will be a hit at your next party or event! Easy to make, easy to serve and oh so delicious! I got the recipe from my friend, Kendra, who made them for a church potluck event and I think I ate the whole crockpot she brought lol. All you’ll need is a good brand of frozen meatballs (I’m partial to Costco’s Kirkland Signature Italian Beef Meatballs brand, they’re just my favorite), 3 simple ingredients for the sauce, and a crockpot to do all the work for you. Don’t forget to plan ahead and set aside 4 hours for cook time in the crockpot. Alright, let me introduce you to your new favorite party appetizer!
