Easy Meatball Kebobs

Submitted by Bergy

"I always have some cooked meatballs in my freezer so this is an easy recipe for me to make!. They look quite elegant and could be served to company any time. You will neeed 8 1" pieces of green pepper and 8 1" pieces of red pepper and 8 pieces on onion. I have simple said !/2 pepper and 1 onion to keep the ingredient list simple. If using Bamboo skewers soak for 45 minutes in water to prevent scorching. The cook time is apprx depending on your method of cooking and the size of your meatball. I used a griddler and it took 7 minutes, BBQ perhaps 15 minutes and broiling about 15 minutes 6" from the broiler. The meatballs are already cooked so it is just a matter of heating them through and getting them golden. The peppers will still be crunchy but hot through"

I was a little iffy at first, but wow this was an excellent treat for dinner. The only thing that we did different was add some red bell peppers and man it was truly amazing for such a simple dish.

Bergy, I haven't yet made this, but what a wonderful idea! In the US, we have the misfortune of being able to purchase cooked meatballs in the grocery store. This could be a VERY easy recipe! Thank you for posting.

My husband loved this! Stringed them in the morning and popped them in the oven. Ate with salad.

Pretty darn good use of some store bought frozen meatballs. Say, did you know I, also, have hidden in my freezer a stash of snowballs that I imported from the North. All for the sake of keeping the g'kids busy.
