Ingredients
- 1 (20 ounce) package ground beef or ground turkey
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 can (16 oz) whole-berry or jellied cranberry sauce
- 3/4 cup chili sauce
- 1/4 cup water
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with the olive oil, and place it in the oven while preheating.
In a medium bowl, mix together the meat, egg, and bread crumbs using your hands. Using an ice cream scoop if possible, form the meat into golf ball sized meatballs. Place about 1 inch apart in the hot baking dish.
Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven, then turn them over, and continue baking for about 5 more minutes, or until somewhat crispy on the outside.
Meanwhile, in your slow cooker, combine the cranberry sauce, chili sauce and water and lightly whisk. Once the meatballs are done, add them to the sauce and stir to coat.
Cover and cook on low for 1 hour, until bubbling.
Serve warm from the cooker.
