Back in my day, the concept of set-it-and-forget-it cooking was as magical to us as pumpkin turning into a carriage. Now, with our trusty slow cookers, that magic is at our fingertips every day. Meatballs have a special place on our supper tables here in the Midwest - whether it's for a Sunday dinner, potluck, or a good ole' family gathering. They're as much a staple as a solid casserole or your granddad's plaid shirt. This recipe for Easy Slow Cooker Meatballs connects time-held tradition with the ease of modern cooking, making it perfect for anyone who wants to bring a taste of nostalgic goodness to their table without spending all day in the kitchen.
Now, these tender jewels go well with creamy mashed potatoes, buttered egg noodles, or even atop a pile of al dente spaghetti – all of which soak up the sauce real nice. And don't forget a side of green beans almondine or corn on the cob, to bring a bit of color and crunch to your plate.
