My friend made this last week and her coworkers went nuts over it! Way better than my turkey wraps. It's pretty easy to make (I helped) and you can find the stuff in most asian sections at the grocery store. It also stays tasty after sitting around for a bit at potlucks.

Answer 2

These are so easy and there will be no leftovers!

Cranberry Party Meatballs

2 (1-pound) bags frozen cocktail-size meatballs (about 64 meatballs)

1 (16-ounce) can Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce

1 (12-ounce) bottle chili sauce

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon cayenne

Answer 4

Look up a tamale pie recipe. It's simple and really good, and not overly cheesy. I just made one last night. It's one of those casseroles that people forget about making, so it'll be different.
