Meatballs are so versatile that every home cook has their preferred way of making them. When done correctly, they can be the juiciest and most delicious comfort food you've ever tasted. You can whip them up using any type of meat or chickpeas for your vegan visitors. They can be mixed with Asian, Indian, and other regional flavors just by switching the spices you incorporate. There are several options to choose from.

 

If you're pressed for time and can't make them from scratch, you can buy frozen meatballs and add spices. To level up these little balls of wonders, you can prepare them in ways other than as traditional spaghetti toppings. Continue reading to learn what these recipes are.

 

Philly Cheesesteak Meatball Sliders

This recipe's a cuter take on the traditional Philly cheesesteak slider. Instead of using longer bread variants, you can just get dinner rolls. Slice them horizontally, place a meatball or 2 (depending on how big you made them) at the bottom, and then layer with peppers, onions, and your choice of sliced cheeses. These small and hearty sandwiches are guaranteed to hit the spot.

 

Cranberry Chili Meatballs

Serving good holiday food doesn't get any easier than this. All you need is a slow cooker, some frozen meatballs, cranberry sauce, a few drops of fiery chili, a bit of lemon, and sugar. Cook and serve over a bed of smooth and creamy mashed potatoes. The hint of citrus combined with a little heat and sweetness makes this dish a truly unforgettable one. The bright color is also perfect for plating.

 

Root Beer BBQ Meatballs

With only 3 items necessary to make this dish, you'll have more time to spend on entertaining your guests. You just need to marinate your meatballs in a BBQ sauce and root beer mix and keep them warm in a slow cooker overnight. If you're feeling fancy, you can top these juicy babies with cheese to add extra depth to the flavors. That'll bring your total ingredients to 4, but that's not so bad, right? Remember to cook extra batches because these will disappear fast.

 

Meatballs in a Blanket

These appetizers taste every bit as good as they look. Plus, they're easy to make. Wrap your meatballs in puff pastry, bake, and serve with your homemade dipping sauce of choice. It's a fun way of sharing food, and it's going to be a hit at any party.

 

Whether you're using homemade or good frozen meatballs, your guests will enjoy any of these recipes. These awesome-tasting dishes will have them coming back for seconds or even thirds.
