Answer 3

I made this one year, and everyone requests it over & over. The "mystery" ingredient is the saurkraut. It cooks down & noone seems to realize it is in the mixture. Even people who would not eat saurkraut LOVE these meatballs.

Appetizer Meatballs: 1 bag frozen Italian seasoned meatballs; 1 jar chili sauce; 1 can jellied cranberry sauce; 1 can Bavarian Saurkraut

I thaw the meatballs overnight in the refrig. Place meatballs first, then saurkraut into slow cooker. Mix the chili sauce & cranberry sauce together well. You can add a small amount of apple juice or red wine to rinse out the chili sauce bottle. Pour over the kraut & meatballs. Cook on low setting for 4-6 hours, or high for 2-3 hours before serving. Stir very carefully 2-3 times during cooking & once before serving. I put fancy cocktail picks, or just toothpicks next to the slow cooker for easy serving.

2 8 ounce packages of cream cheese
1 16 ounce bottle Ranch dressing
1/2 cup chopped celery
8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese or Cheddar Cheese, grated

In a 13x9x2 inch baking pan, combine the shredded chicken meat with the entire bottle of hot sauce, spreading to make an even layer.
In a saucepan, combine the cream cheese and ranch dressing over medium heat until smooth.
Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken. Sprinkle with chopped celery and then shredded cheese.
Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until bubbly. (Watch that the top doesn't get browned.) Let stand 10 minutes.
