  1. These was very good but I added some balsamic vinegar. It cut through the sweetness and gave it just a little extra tanginess!

  2. Can I cook on high for 4 hours instead of low for 4 hours? My crock pot doesn’t let me cook on low for 4 hours. I can only cook on low for 8 hours or 10 hours.

    Thanks!

  3. This was delicious! My kids are very picker eaters and they loved the meatballs. Thanks for sharing!

  4. can you use frozen turkey meatballs, i made with beef and they were great! having a get-together and some friends dont eat beef.

    1. You sure can Kim!

  5. 4 stars
    I’ve used this recipe many times and is one of my favourites because I get to use my crockpot. The sauce is very good, but if you’re someone who likes extra sauce or if you’re planning on storing it for the next day (college student, leftovers are life savers!), definetely double up on the sauce. I’ve used store-brand meatballs and they were alright. I bought better quality meatballs last week and I just put them in the crockpot. Hopefully these will look just as good as the photos here. Thanks for the recipe!
