Modifications:
As I have mentioned a few times, you do not have to use frozen cocktail meatballs. You can always make your own meatballs to use in this recipe.
Not into peach? No worries!! You can change the flavor of these simply by changing out the jelly: strawberry, apple, grape – the possibilities are only limited by your ability to find jellies or jams!
For more of a kick, use Italian seasoned meatballs or meatballs with parmesan cheese.
