Slow Cooker Meatballs And Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients just until blended; shape into 1-inch balls. Place in slow cooker; top with vegetables and pasta sauce. Cover with lid.
• Cook on LOW 6 to 8 hours (or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours).
• Cook spaghetti as directed on package, omitting salt.
• Drain spaghetti. Serve topped with meatballs, sauce and cheese.

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.

Steps:

• For the sauce: Pour the tomatoes into a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker and crush by hand. Stir in the tomato paste, olive oil, oregano, pepper flakes, garlic, bay leaves and 2 teaspoons salt.
• For the meatballs: Place the onions, carrots, celery, parsley and garlic in a food processor and pulse to make a paste. Transfer to a large bowl and add the beef, pork, eggs, breadcrumbs, Parmesan and 1 teaspoon salt. Form into 1 1/2-inch meatballs (you should get about 20 to 24) and nestle into the sauce in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 4 to 5 hours or low for 7 to 8 hours. Discard the bay leaves before serving.

Steps:

• Stir together the chili sauce, jelly, mustard, vinegar and hot sauce in a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Add the meatballs and stir to coat with the sauce. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or low for 5 to 6 hours.

Steps:

• Heat the slow cooker if necessary. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and add the onion, carrots, celery and garlic and fry gently for a minute. Pour in the passata, add the parsley and stir, then transfer the lot to the slow cooker.
• To make the meatballs, tip the mince into a large bowl. Add the oats, paprika, garlic and plenty of black pepper, and mix everything together with your hands. Divide the mixture into 20 lumps about the size of a walnut and roll each piece into a meatball. Spray or run a non-stick pan with a little oil and gently cook the meatballs until they start to brown. Add them to the tomato base and cook on Low for 5 hours. Serve over rice or pasta if you like, or with a green salad.

Steps:

• Place meatballs in slow cooker.
• Mix barbecue sauce and mustard until blended; pour over meatballs. Stir gently to evenly coat. Cover with lid.
• Cook on LOW 3 to 4 hours (or on HIGH 2 hours). Stir in onions just before serving.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the ground beef, bread crumbs, parsley, garlic, onion, and egg. Shape the mixture into 16 meatballs.
• In a slow cooker, mix the spaghetti sauce, crushed tomatoes, and tomato puree. Place the meatballs into the sauce mixture. Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours.

Steps:

• Saute onion and Italian dressing in a small saute pan over medium heat for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Combine turkey, bread crumbs, garlic, sauteed onions, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl; mix well.
• Combine diced tomatoes and marinara in a second bowl; set aside.
• Form 1/2 of the turkey mixture into 1 1/2-inch meatballs and layer them in the bottom of a slow cooker. Pour 1/2 of the tomato mixture over the meatballs. Form the remaining turkey mixture into meatballs and layer with remaining tomato mixture.
• Cover and cook until no longer pink in the centers, about 4 hours on High, or 8 hours on Low.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl combine ground beef, ground pork, parmesan cheese, eggs, salt, pepper, garlic, basil, parsley and oregano.
• Add bread crumbs 1/2 cup at a time until mixture is not too wet and can be formed into balls easily.
• Form mixture into 12 balls using your thumb to press a hole into the center (You can also use a cookie scooper to make uniformed balls).
• Insert a piece of mozzerella into the hole and close the hole by pinching the meat mixture together around it.
• Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and drizzle olive oil into pan. Add meatballs and cook until just browned. Using a slotted spoon, transfer meatballs into a slow cooker. (If prefered you can bake meatballs in a deeper cookie sheet at 350 for about 30 min).
• Pour red sauce over the meatballs and cook on LOW for approximately 5 hours.
• Serve meatballs and sauce over spaghetti.
