I’m still basking in the glow of a successful Thanksgiving. I don’t know exactly what I did differently, but it was a relaxing, slow pace day with no major disasters and it was amazing. The food was delicious, the company was delightful and no one was poisoned. Not even my brother with Celiac. A success all around in my book.
Now, of course, it’s on to Christmas! I’ve already started with a million projects, but we’ll start with a recipe. We host Christmas Eve and we usually get family style take out from a local Italian place, but I was thinking this year it might be fun to have everyone bring two of their favorite appetizers instead of doing a huge meal. I have a bunch of favorites, of course, but I wanted to try out some new recipes, too. Particularly, I wanted to try something easy and cheap. I’ve had Sweet and Sour Meatballs before and enjoyed them, but I’ve never actually made them. Until today.
These were everything I hoped they would be. Super flavorful, easy and inexpensive.

So much yum. PS, the green leaves (rosemary, I think?) are soley for looks. I do believe these will make it on the all app menu for Christmas eve. Everyone likes meatballs, right? But the flavor is just surprising enough to be a little special. Congrats Sweet & Sour Meatballs, you’re in!
