Vegetarian Cranberry Meatballs image

These are wonderful vegetarian meatballs with a sweet and sour sauce. They're simple to make and they disappear very quickly. Make these for Christmas holiday parties. If you don't have veggie burger patties, you may use TVP, textured vegetable protein, that's available at most health food stores.

I think these meatballs would be better if they were made with beef or pork. Vegetarian meatballs just don't have the same flavor.

These meatballs are way too healthy for me. I need something with more cheese and butter.

These meatballs are amazing! I was skeptical at first, but they turned out so well. The cranberries add a nice tartness that balances out the sweetness of the oats. I served them with mashed potatoes and gravy, and they were a huge hit with my family
