Great recipe! Just right amount of ketchup in mix. Cooked onion and green peppers with meatballs to save time. Used toasted bread (processed) instead of crackers.

Homemade meatballs yet it uses canned pineapple?? You should always use fresh pineapple since they are so readily available. Recipe is much better with everything fresh.
