Tips:

  • To save time, you can use pre-made frozen meatballs. Just thaw them according to the package instructions before cooking.
  • If you don't have a slow cooker, you can also cook the meatballs in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the meatballs over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta. You can also add a side of vegetables, such as green beans or broccoli.
  • For a more flavorful dish, use a good quality beef broth. You can also add a splash of red wine or Worcestershire sauce to the broth.
  • If you like your meatballs extra crispy, you can brown them in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker.
  • Top the meatballs with shredded cheese before serving. You can use cheddar, mozzarella, or Parmesan cheese, or a combination of all three.
