CHRISTMAS APPLE JELLY MEAT BALLS

This recipe is so old I can hardly read it.  It has been used and used and used. It also has been revised over and over.  I see now you can make it with cranberry sauce, which I am sure is good also.  BUT.........I always go back to this one.  It is a great snacky thing to throw together at a last minute when someone calls and says they are on their way over!  So simple.

2 lbs of hamburger
1 envelope of dry onion soup mix
1 egg
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
Mix tog and roll into very small little balls and broil under the broiler

In your electric skillet put 2 Tblsp of butter, 2 (14 oz) jars of pizza sauce or equal amount in one jar and add 1 (10 oz) jar apple jelly........When all is blended tog........throw in the meat balls and keep on simmer.  I usually add a shot or two of Tabasco.  Serve with toothpicks.......If you are going all out........make some homemade tiny rolls to go with for a tiny meatball sandwich.
This does make alot........its easy to cut it in half.
