Ingredients

15 fresh basil leaves

15 mini pretzel slider rolls

2 cups prepared tomato sauce

Kosher salt/pepper

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

1 small red cabbage – finely sliced

Step by step

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  2. In a large bowl mix together: sausage, egg, milk and panko until well combined.

  3. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out balls of sausage mixture onto a rimmed non-stick baking sheet. Bake for approximately 20 minutes.

  4. Note: Heat slider rolls and tomato sauce while meatballs are cooking.

  5. While meatballs are cooking: Add red cabbage into a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together vinegar and sugar until combined. Season with salt/pepper. Slowly whisk in olive oil until combined. Pour over cabbage. Set aside.

  6. When meatballs have finished cooking transfer them to tomato sauce pot. Turn to coat.
