Chelle's Famous Sweet and Sour Meatballs

Submitted by Mommy Diva

"I make this using Recipe #196018. This is one of my family's favorites...even my husband's family (mother-in-law and her friends, sister-in-law, brother-in-laws, etc.) All seem to like these. I like to serve them with my Crab Wontons as an appetizer when serving to guests. ;) They go great in a crockpot for parties, bbq's, potlucks, etc. and I am usually requested to bring them!! Amounts can vary depending on number of meatballs you make. ;) ****You can add green pepper, red pepper and additional pineapple if you want more veggies - I usually don't unless I need to stretch it!"

Fun, non-traditional sweet and sour dish. I used some frozen meatballs that I had in the freezer, and a spicy sweet and sour sauce I purchased at Trader Joe's. I left out the baby corn, but added all the optional ingredients, and served over white rice. Very good!

Oh my. This was great. DH and I loved this and will definately make this again. I used kikoman powdered sweet and sour mix.(2 envelopes) as I couln't find the other sauce. Very easy and quick. I served mine with a side of broccoli.
