Notes
- Add a fresh garnish: Finish the meatballs with chopped green onion or parsley to make the presentation pop. A little color goes a long way!
- Make them on the stovetop: You can make this meatball recipe in a large pot on the stove instead of the slow cooker if you’d like. Allow them plenty of time to simmer in the sauce over medium heat.
- No need to thaw the meatballs: This recipe is perfect as a last-minute idea! Throw your meatballs in straight from the freezer.
