Whether you are throwing a holiday party, having friends over for the Rose Bowl (GO SPARTANS!), or just having a family night at home, appetizers are fun ways to try out some new recipes without the pressure of making a complete meal. Some of my friends and I have put together a collection of party-ready appetizer recipes. You’re going to want to pin this one for later!
Frozen meatballs make for quick and easy party prep, but I get tired of the usual Swedish or BBQ varieties. These tasty beer meatballs can be fancy enough for a cocktail party or laid-back enough for a tailgate. If you are looking for a make-ahead meal, just serve the meatballs over noodles or potatoes with a side of veggies! This is a great recipe for your repertoire.
