Using packaged meatballs helps save time in the kitchen and they are just as tasty as homemade. My friends look forward to enjoying these meatballs at our holiday gatherings and there are never any leftovers! The sauce is tangy yet sweet, and the festive color is perfect for any holiday party. —Amy Scamerhorn, Indianapolis, Indiana

Made these for a Christmas party and I was thrilled to have them taste so good. The sauce was thick instead of runny and greasy like so made other recipes. I used an Italian Seasoned meatball.

Used the glaze/sauce on a ham, very good! Will definitely be trying it on meatballs at Christmas.

These were delicious and the easiest thing in the world to make. I literally had 35 minutes to get out the door, and even though these took 20-25 min I was able to quickly get all the ingredients in the pot and then transfer them to a foil party pan after they were done, stick a lid on and go....So they are quick, easy and delicous. I wanted these to be served as an apetizer for Thanksgiving, however we ate them with dinner instead, still declious and people commented on how good they were.
