  1. I’m having a lot of people over this Saturday for my daughter’s first birthday so I was wondering if I could double up on everything??
    Thanks a lot!

    1. Yes! I think that would work out fine 🙂

  2. Should the sauce get thick & gooey? Mine is runny and I was hoping for a stickier thicker sauce….

  3. This recipe sounds great. I didn’t have any orange juice so I substituted juice from an orange. I also added some diced garlic and some pear ginger jam along with the orange marmalade. The meatballs are still cooking. They are going to a New Year’s Eve party..

  4. Hi Corey! I assume these are cooked, frozen meatballs? Thanks for the clarification!

    1. Yes Jaclyn 🙂

  5. Can I make these the day before? Love all your recipes!

    Thank you.

    1. You sure can Sandy 🙂
