easy crock pot meatballs

Recipe by

My kids love spaghetti and meatballs, okay so does this big kid. What I don’t love is all the time spent slaving over the stove. So the last time I made meatballs I decided to try them out in the crock pot. I was thrilled they came out soooooo yummy. On the plus side this recipe can be a freezer/crock pot meal too. Just make the meatballs ahead of time, freeze individually on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and then toss into a freezer bag. Then when you are ready to cook throw them into the crock pot with the tomato sauce make some pasta and viola DINNER!
