TANGY MEATBALLS
A friend gave me this recipe many years ago. It came from some cooking contest and was printed in a newspaper. The sauce is sweet and tangy and works well with plain rice. The meatballs have a lot of extra ingredients that really aren't necessary so one could use their own meatball recipe for this dish. The foil in the pan is just for easy clean up. A nice salad and some good bread would make this a quick and easy meal. The cook time is figuring that you are simmering the sauce while the meat balls are baking.

Tips:
- Use a combination of ground meats. This will give your meatballs a more complex flavor and texture. Ground beef, pork, and veal are all good options.
- Don't overmix the meatball mixture. Overmixing will make the meatballs tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use bread crumbs or flour as a binder. This will help to hold the meatballs together and prevent them from falling apart.
- Season the meatball mixture well. Use a variety of spices and herbs, such as garlic, onion, parsley, oregano, and basil.
- Bake the meatballs at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the meatballs while keeping the inside moist and juicy.
- Serve the meatballs with your favorite sauce. Marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, or a simple tomato sauce are all good options.
Conclusion:
Tangy baked meatballs are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can be made ahead of time and reheated when you are ready to serve.
