Clinton Kelly's Make-Ahead Turkey Meatballs
Ingredients
- 1 cup sauerkraut, drained of juice
- 1 can whole cranberry sauce
- One 12-ounce jar chili sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 pounds ground turkey
- 3 eggs
- ½ package Lipton onion soup mix
- ½ cup breadcrumbs
Preparation
In a medium saucepan, place sauerkraut, cranberry sauce, chili sauce and brown sugar. Fill the empty chili sauce jar with water and add it to the pan. Cook approximately 10 minutes.
In a bowl, blend turkey meat, eggs, onion soup mix and breadcrumbs. Shape them into mini meatballs using a mini cookie scoop, adding them to the sauce as you go. Once all the meatballs have been rolled, cover pot and cook on stove top for about 15-20 minutes until meatballs are cooked through.
Serve immediately or let everything cool to room temperature before freezing to serve later.
