Gingersnap Meatballs
"The unusual and very tasty sauce for these meatballs contains crushed gingersnaps. This is a scaled down adaptation of a recipe that I found in one of my Taste Of Home magazines. I think it is good served with macaroni and cheese and a crisp salad."

I made Gingersnap Meatballs for dinner tonight, served them with rice, green beans almondine and biscuits. My family thoroughly enjoyed this dinner, perfect for an Autumnal evening. Next time I prepare them, and there will be a next time as the sauce is particularly yummy, I will try putting some crushed gingersnaps in the meatballs themselves for a little more gingersnap taste. Thanks for a great recipe.

I am a newlywed living in beautiful Virginia with my husband and 3 doggies. I'm a little on the hyper side and I am happiest playing hostess and cooking for a crowd! My kitchen is my domain and I find cooking to be very therapeutic. On a day off you might find me brewing a fresh pot of iced tea and hanging out in the kitchen either cleaning and organizing or tinkering with recipes! I rarely follow favorite recipes to a "T", preferring instead to allow my creative side to take over. I especially love the holidays because it gives me even more of an excuse to bake! In the summertime I love visiting my mom and stepdad in the VA Beach area. I love the ocean and I love to go shopping with my mom!
