Super easy, these cranberry orange meatballs are perfect for any party. Slightly sweet and tangy, there's a subtle citrus flavor. The contrast between the savory meatballs and the sweet sauce is yummy. The cranberry isn't overly noticeable but does add a little holiday flair. Use your favorite frozen meatballs to whip up this simple appetizer recipe. Turkey or chicken meatballs could also be used. These smoky and sweet meatballs are one of my most requested appetizers. They are always a hit, and I rarely have leftovers.
