Ultimate Party Meatballs

1 14 oz can Ocean Spray cranberry sauce
1 12 oz bottle Heinz chili sauce
2 lb bag frozen precooked turkey meatballs, defrosted (We use Foster Farms Homestyle Turkey meatballs because they have no dairy in their recipe.)

Directions:
*My quick cooking method with a 25 minute prep time*

Defrost meatballs in microwave for 8-10 minutes.

Add sauces into 4 qt sauce pan and whisk frequently. Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes or until mixture begins to boil, add meatballs. Lower heat to simmer until meatballs are heated through, about 10 minutes.

Note1: I gathered the ingredients at Von's tonight. The Heinz Chili sauce was found in the BBQ sauce section. Will try this weekend.

Note2: Discovered Heinz Chili Sauce is very much if not exactly like shrimp cocktail sauce. Mixed with cranberry sauce, it had truck loads of umami. So rich, this needs to be served with something bland like sourdough bread or white rice. I think by also adding chopped white onion and green bell pepper, it would round out the dish to make it a meal.
