Slow Cooker Meatballs and Sauce image

Taken from The Everyday Low-Carb Slow Cooker Cookbook "The meatballs cook right in the sauce, making it especially rich and robust. If you like, serve with spaghetti squash 'spaghetti' or low-carb pasta."

Time 8h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb ground pork
1 lb ground veal (90% lean) or 1 lb lean ground beef (90% lean)
3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon oregano
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (25 3/4 ounce) can spaghetti sauce ("lite" or "no sugar added")
2 teaspoons oregano
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup red wine
1 cup water

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, using clean hands, combine meatball ingredients (ground pork through 1 tsp black pepper); set aside. In slow cooker crock, whisk together the sauce ingredients (spaghetti sauce through water).
  • Form meat mixture into golf ball-sized meatballs and drop them into the sauce (some will stick out of the sauce; that's okay).
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours. Before serving, stir gently so all meatballs are coated with sauce.
