Ingredients

• 1 pound frozen fully cooked meatballs
• 1 cup grape jelly
• 1 cup chili sauce (such as Heinz)
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce

2. Add frozen meatballs to the sauce, stirring to coat evenly.
3. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until meatballs are heated through and sauce has thickened slightly.
