The addition of all the spices in this recipe makes the flavors just combine in a way that will wakeup your mouth. I used frozen meatballs here for convenience as I was making several dishes. But feel free to make your own from scratch. And use any type of ground meat or meat alternative that you like. This recipe will taste just as good as the one I made here.

May 1, 2018 at 2:39 AMThat looks and sounds so amazing Marilyn. Meatballs with gravy are always a winning combination. May I ask would the cooking time be a little longer if the meatballs aren’t frozen?
Marilyn
May 2, 2018 at 12:31 PMActual cook time won;t matter. Those meatballs melt within a few minutes once the crock pot gets up to temperature. Feel free to use fresh! Have a good week!
