Crockpot Sweet and Spicy Kielbasa Bites
There are certain types of food that have earned the name "party food" at our house. Things like wings, subs, queso and tortilla chips, crudité, dips and chips and the list goes on and on. These kielbasa bites are perfect party food and are ever-so-simple to put together. I tend to serve these as an alternative to meatballs, which are on the top of the list of hot favorites for snacking. In fact, this same sauce would work well with meatballs, too.
