These cranberry sauce meatballs are perfect for the holiday's, and no one will even notice they have no meat ;)
For the Cranberry Tomato Sauce:
For the meatballs:
Heat a large pot on medium-high heat for 30 seconds before adding the olive oil to heat. Heat for 30 seconds, reduce heat to medium and add your onions. Cook for 10 minutes before adding your garlic and cranberries. Stir to incorporate the ingredients and cook for 10 more minutes. Now add your salt, pepper, tomato sauce and water. Bring sauce to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.
While your sauce simmers, prepare your meatballs by adding all your ingredients into a bowl, mix well using your hands and create golf size balls. Should yield around 12.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or pan on high and lightly grease with olive oil spray. You want to add your meatballs to the skillet or pan when you see smoke rising. Cook for around 4 minutes on each size before adding to the pot of sauce and letting everything heat throughout.
Serve with pasta, as an appetizer or with your favourites greens and garlic toast.
