The combination of cranberries and sauerkraut give these meatballs a different flavor. I'm always asked for the recipe whenever I bring this dish to a potluck.

Cranberry Kraut Meatballs

- 1 envelope onion soup mix
- 1 cup dry bread crumbs

- 1-1/3 cups water
- 1 bottle (12 ounces) chili sauce
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
