Tasty Thursday~Applesauce Meatballs

Applesauce Meatballs

My mom recently made these at my house, and they were a hit.

Ingredients

• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 cup soft bread crumbs
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 pound ground beef
• SAUCE:
• 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed tomato soup, undiluted
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 teaspoon Domino® or C&H® Granulated Pure Cane Sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
• 3 to 5 drops Worcestershire sauce
• 3 to 5 drops hot pepper sauce

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into 1-1/2-in. balls. In a large skillet, gently brown meatballs over medium heat; drain. Transfer to an ungreased 2-qt. baking dish.
Combine sauce ingredients; pour over meatballs. Cover and bake at 325° for 45-50 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.

Yield: 4 servings.


I didn't realize that Tasty Thursday was going to be a Memorial Day theme this week. Sorry! To make up for this, here are a few links to recipes that I enjoy on Memorial Day...or other cookout gatherings.
