Hi Friends!<\/span><\/p>\n

I originally shared this recipe right before Squish was born, after I did a little reader survey and you guys asked for more slow cooker recipes. Fast forward three years, I did another survey and guess what? I still make these every few weeks and you guys are still asking for more slow cooker recipes. So I’m resharing this recipe with a few updates (ie adding more veggies) and I also tested them in the Instant Pot so I could give you guys directions for that as well.<\/p>\n

There is nothing super fancy about this recipe. It’s basically just meatballs, except they’re cooked in the crockpot so it’s hands off once you get them in there. I also added some extra veggies because that’s never a bad idea! Once they’re cooked you can serve them over spaghetti, on a bun for a meatball sub, or eat them with just the sauce!<\/p>\n
