Ingredients
  • 2 lbs ground meat {it may be nice for your guests if you use two different kinds}

  • 1 can (15 oz) whole cranberry sauce

  2. Form meatballs and line them up in a 9" x 13" glass baking dish, in a single layer.
  3. In a medium sauce pan, heat the cranberry sauce, drained sauerkraut, brown sugar, chili sauce, and water. {You can do the above up to one day in advance. If prepping ahead, cover and refrigerate.}
