Fall is in the air which means we’ll be entertaining inside a lot more often.  One of the easiest things to make for entertaining is meatballs.. …or as how we refer to them Party Meatballs!!. I love that I can make them ahead and not be stressed when my company is at the house and that I can pretty much cover any dietary requirement for any of my guests!

If you check out my website you’ll see that I have over 15 different meatball recipes!  I’ve included most of those in this round-up but have also put together some other delicious meatball recipes from some of my friends that I’ve made for entertaining.  It’s considered entertaining if I cook them for my family too right?

Meatball Dip’s or Skillet recipes!

These work well for having people over for football parties, warm cozy nights at home, or a Friday night get-together with the neighbors.

You can serve them right out of the skillet and have plates on the side for people to serve themselves. One Pan meals and appetizers are a definite plus and the fact that they are all complete comfort food is an added bonus!

Ive also used these recipes as the main course for a lighter dinner.  Skillet meatballs served along side a simple salad is a fast and easy dinner!

All of these recipes are complete comfort food meatballs and work so well for entertaining!  No-one is ever disappointed in a juicy, tender meatball smothered in sauces.  The added bonus for you as the host is you can serve right out of the dish you make them in.

Meatballs Cocktail Party or Special Occasions

I love a party!  Who doesn”t love a party?  Personally I love simple comfort food like regular old meatballs.  But sometimes I like to serve things that dress up meatballs a little bit!

They really aren’t any fancier than normal meatballs they are just able to be presented in gourmet way!

These recipes are for a little bit more special occasions like a holiday cocktail party, celebrating something special or when you are looking for a meatball you want to impress people with something a little bit prettier.

The Blue Cheese meatball presentation screams gourmet food when its on the plate but when you eat it there is nothing pretentious in it!  The Chinese Pork Meatballs are another one that look super fancy, but the flavors are just good comfort food!

Meatballs with a Twist on the Flavor

This category is for the times when you dont want the traditional tomato sauce over a meatball!  Its for those times you want something a little different, but still want comfort food.  I’ve used these twists on meatballs for when Im having friends  over for a girls night out and along with drinks with the neighbors on a weekend night!

Not your traditional Italian tomato sauce over a meatball, but something with a unique take on meatballs —this is where I look for ideas.  The Greek meatballs make you think of the Greek Isles, the buffalo meatballs make me think about traveling to NY for wings and the Chinese pork meatballs give me a healthier option for Chinese food in the shape of a meatball!

Meatball subs, sandwiches and sliders!

Having a tailgate party and want to serve your meatballs in a bun?  Having a pool party or garden party and dont want to serve a lot of silverware with your meatballs?  Need sandwiches for easy carry?

This meatball category is for you!  Easy ways to serve your favorite meatball in a bun or slice of bread!  Actually just about all of the meatballs in this roundup could be served in a bun, but these were made for serving that way!

From the traditional meatball sub like the twisted sub topped with sauerkraut or using a baguette like the Cheesy Meatball Sub Sliders all of these are made for easy to handle and full satisfaction.

I love being able to make the Sammies ahead of time and just plop them on the table for people to dive into.  Ive also made meatball bars where people can make their own sub sandwich with the amount of sauce or topping they like!

Whatever way you serve them you’ll enjoy them!
