Do you have a holiday party coming up?? Easy Party Meatballs are a perfect addition to add a little protein to the party menu, especially during the holidays.
I LOVE a party. I mean, everything about it makes my 98% extroverted heart happy. I like to use my Hostess with the McMostess principles and pull everything together with a little homemade and a little bought.
What about you? What are some of your favorite foods to bring to a holiday gathering?
One thing I find is that proteins are usually the piece missing from all the sweets and dips on the menu. So, whether I’m hosting or attending, I find these Easy Party Meatballs can be thrown together quickly whether I have time to sit and watch them cook or throw them in my slow cooker.
