Ingredients | Pretty Tasty Cupcakes Cape May

2 pounds ground beef

1 cup bread crumbs

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

2 eggs

2 tablespoons grated onion

2 tablespoons soy sauce

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

1 (16 ounce) can jellied cranberry sauce (such as Ocean Spray®)

1 ½ cups ketchup

2 ½ tablespoons packed brown sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Mix ground beef, bread crumbs, parsley, eggs, grated onion, soy sauce, and garlic powder in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Pinch off about 2 teaspoons of meat mixture per meatball and roll into small meatballs. Arrange meatballs in a large, deep baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are browned, about 25 minutes. Drain excess grease.

Combine jellied cranberry sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir the sauce until cranberry sauce has melted and brown sugar has dissolved.

Pour the sauce over meatballs and bake until sauce forms a glaze and meatballs are no longer pink inside, 25 to 30 more minutes.
