Of the four adults who tried this recipe, 3 wouldn't make it again. I personally liked it. It was tangy and festive. Something different. I also made the meatballs and sauce separately. The meatballs were excellent, meaty and flavorful. Thanks for posting!

These were delicious. I did make the meatballs and the sauce separately. I baked them in the oven until they were browned (in about 15 minutes). The next day, I combined the sauce and the meatballs and warmed them in the crockpot. They went fast at my party.
