GLAZED PINEAPPLE MEATBALL APPETIZERS

I love these little bites, and so do most of my clients. I use my own homemade meatballs, and a "special" sauce to coat them. They're easy to make, and can keep your guests happy, while waiting for the main course to arrive. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

My family enjoys these when we have "appetizer night". These aren't italian meatballs for spaghetti or meatball subs, they have a sweet glaze.
