I admit, I’m not someone who finds entertaining easy. Have you seen the video on Facebook about the mom getting ready and running around like crazy before the holiday guests arrive? That might as well be me. I admire my friends who seem to effortlessly entertain at a moments notice and strive to get better at entertaining, because really, isn’t it worth it to just get together with friends?
One thing that I have found makes entertaining easier is to always have some easy food options available in my freezer so that I can pull stuff out at a moments notice and not have to stress about what I am going to serve. I always make sure to have meatballs frozen in my freezer because they make a great dinner or appetizer in a pinch, like these BBQ Cranberry Meatballs.
BBQ Cranberry Meatballs
- 2 dozen meatballs ( I make my own and freeze them in advance so you can do that or just used bagged, frozen meatballs from GIANT Food Stores)
- 2 cups GIANT Brand Cranberry Juice
- 1 bottle GIANT Brand BBQ Sauce
- Add meatballs, cranberry juice and BBQ to your crockpot. Cover and cook on low 6-8 hours or on high for 4 hours. Enjoy!
Using frozen bagged meatballs makes these easy appetizer even easier!
Don’t have time to cook?
Then GIANT Food Store has lots of great options with their World Menu selections, Simply Enjoy or Own Brand, all which save you time, save you money and offer great taste for all of your entertaining needs.
