hello all,

In my fatter days, we used to make some fantastic meatballs in the crockpot.
We used to put a sauce of  grape jelly and chili sauce.

I am trying to make it work for our new diet.....

However, i will have to make my own Chili sauce and figured I would ask if anyone might have a recipe...but a quick one...I know it's mostly ketchup (i have the low sugar one).
 
I also switched to turkey meatballs, and we have the SF grape jelly on hand.

Even if it gives me trouble...the kids will still eat it.

Here is an easy one... just use fat free mayo-
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/fried-onion-rings-with-chili-sauce-recipe/index.html


Chili Sauce:
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons chili sauce
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper


To make the chili sauce, combine the mayonnaise, chili sauce, chili powder, and cayenne in a small bowl and stir well. Cover and chill until serving time.



And here is another one- http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-lagasse/tomato-chili-sauce-recipe/index.html


1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup chopped onions
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 cups diced vine-ripened tomatoes, peeled and seeded
1/2 small jalapeno, stemmed and chopped
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground cloves
2 cups white vinegar


In a medium nonreactive saucepan, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 1 minute. Add the jalapeno, remaining spices and vinegar. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and cool completely. Pour the mixture into a sterilized 1 quart canning jar. Process the jar according to basic canning procedures. Can be used the next day or will keep for up to 1 month under refrigeration.



And here is this one-
http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sara-moulton/red-chili-sauce-recipe/index.html


3 ounces (about 15) dried New Mexican red chilies (available at some specialty foods shops and by mail from The Chile Shop, 109 Eas****er Street, Sante Fe, NM 87501, Tel. 505-983-6080), stemmed and seeded (wear rubber gloves)
1 large onion, halved
1 large garlic clove
6 cups water


In a large saucepan simmer the chilies, onion, and garlic in the water for 20 minutes. Transfer half the chilies, onion, and garlic with tongs to a blender, add 3/4 cup of the cooking liquid, and puree the mixture until it is smooth. Force the puree through a sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on the solids with a spoon. Repeat the procedure with the remaining chilies and 3/4 cup of the remaining cooking liquid, stir in salt to taste, and discard the remaining cooking liquid. The sauce may be made 2 weeks in advance and kept covered and chilled.

I never liked the ground turkey. Shop rite has Perdue chicken patties and they are really good they are on sale this week for 1.61 a  1lb pkg

Hi,

Would you mind sharing your recipe?  I find it hard to find meatballs that I like.

Thanks,
Melissa

sure
 to every pound of ground chicken use
 2eggs
2 tbsp of minced garlic
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
salt & Pepper to taste
bread crumbs
1 tsp parsley flakes


mix all ingredients together, will look slushy, add bread crumbs until the mixture gets firm enough to roll into balls, roll into small balls keep your hands moist with water so they will roll easier


place olive oil in a pan and make real hot before you put your meat in and fry till golden brown


enjoy Susan
  I made some today and placed them in my tomatoe gray and we had spaghetti-  I use DREAMFIELDS pasta it only has 5gm net carbs per serving and it is low on the glycemic index, if you have trouble tolerating pasta , then try this one
