    Love 'em! Of course, this is my mom's recipe, and Jaderose101 is my daughter, so it's a family thing. I brought these to work today, and when someone wanted the recipe, I couldn't remember all of the ingredients for the meatballs. I decided to Google Funky Meatballs and lo and behold, this was the first recipe listed!

    My family has been making these for years too...can't have Christmas without them. Only difference in mine is that I add some diced onion and I do brown them. Once all is done, I put them in the crock pot and let them really soak in.
