Sweet & Sour Meatballs

Meatballs:
1 lb. ground beef
1 egg
¼ cup of onion, finely chopped
¼ cup of Italian Style Bread Crumbs
Salt & Black pepper


Sweet & Sour Sauce:
1 (8 ounce) can of tomato sauce
¼ cup of water
1 (14 ounce) can of whole cranberry sauce
½ cup of BBQ sauce

Make small meatballs by combining the first set of ingredients in a bowl. Lay the balls in a lightly greased baking dish and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan (on the stove top) combine the second set of ingredients; mix well and simmer on low to medium heat. When the meatballs are done, gently transfer them to the sweet and sour sauce and simmer uncovered for fifteen minutes. Serve over white rice.

Some advice my grandmother shared with me ~

Either learn to cook and keep your husband fed or send him to cooking school so he can learn to feed you.”

She went with the latter. However, this recipe is hers, it's one of her very few.
