Best Meatballs I've Made!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Although skeptical about using salad dressing for a sauce, I made these meatballs for an office party, doubling the recipe. ... It was super easy... I made the sauce the night before and toted the crock pot, pre-made sauce and frozen meatballs to work, set it up in the kitchen and let it go (stirring occasionally of course). I prefer spicy food so I added a couple dashes of garlic salt and a full tablespoon of red pepper flakes to the sauce. After about 1/2 hour on the buffet table, all that was left was about a 1/2 cup of the sauce! Thanks Sandra Lee, this one stays in my recipe box!Read more

Crowd pleaser
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I just made this for Super Bowl Sunday. I was tried of the BBQ, Sweet & Sour, and Swedish meatball everyone always cooks over... the holidays. Everyone enjoyed this even my picking teenager niece. I did follow the suggestions and added more red pepper flakes. I used about 2 1/2 TBS of red pepper flakes. I also used a light dressing because of the comments about the sauce being greasy. It was easy and none where leftover. Read more

Just Say No to frozen Meatballs!
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I love to cook but had very little time to make anything elaborate. Went with the reviews on this one but truly, pretty... gross. Frozen Meatballs are NOT good. They taste like processed garbage. Recipe may have been better with some homemade mini meatballs but if you are going to go through the trouble with homemade meatballs, don't ruin them with this sauce. Read more
