Mini Meatball Appetizers with Cranberry Pecan Relish

I especially like to make them as holiday appetizers due to the festive colors. The cranberry pecan relish adds a cheerful red to these cute Christmas appetizers and topping them with fresh mint brings the (edible) “evergreen” to this Christmas finger food.
