Cranberry Meatballs and Sausage image

Years ago, I found a version of this sausage and meatballs recipe in a cookbook. At first taste, my family judged it a keeper. The tangy, saucy meatballs are requested by our friends whenever I host card night. We also take the yummy dish on camping trips. -Marybell Lintott, Vernon, British Columbia
