Homemade meatballs with chili pepper cooked in an enchilada sauce make a hearty dinner for the hungriest of crowds.

Ingredients

  • Meatballs:
  • 2 lb. ground chuck or round
  • 1/2 lb. pork sausage
  • 1 C. corn meal
  • 1/2 C. milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 medium onion, minced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbs. chili powder
  • Sauce:
  • 2 19 oz. cans enchilada sauce
  • 1/2 C. water

Directions

Mix all meatball ingredients with hands or a heavy wooden spoon. Form into golf ball size meatballs. Place in one layer on a large jelly roll pan or cookie sheets. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 15- 20 minutes; drain well. You can also brown the meatballs in a large skillet and drain. Add the cans of enchilada sauce and the water to the crock pot while browning, mixing well. Turn on the cooker so it begins to heat the sauce. When the meatballs are finished baking add to the sauce. Cover and cook on low for about 6 hours. Serve in the crockpot or remove to a large serving bowl and spoon sauce over the meatballs.
