For more easy and delicious meatball recipes, try our pineapple meatballs and sweet hoisin meatballs. This recipe for meatballs with cranberry sauce is really versatile and there are lots of ways to add flavor and flair. Here are some of our favorite ideas to get you started:
Cranberry jalapeño meatballs – add some jalapeño pepper to the cranberry sauce and make it spicy (just be sure to taste your jalapeño first for spiciness so you know how much to put in). Note: you may wish to omit the hot sauce called for in the recipe if you’re using jalapeño. Add some ginger – turn up the festive flavors by adding ginger to the cranberry sauce. Use about a 1″ knob of ginger (and there’s no need to peel it if you’re using organic ginger). Use herbs – thyme, rosemary, and sage all work well with cranberry and add wonderful herbaceous notes.
In this recipe, we use whole foods and fresh cranberries which are high in antioxidants and fiber. We also use honey as a natural sweetener. We recommend using a quality meatball as a healthy source of protein.
