Notes

Optional for Serving

I served mine garnished with green onions.
Dinner: When serving for dinner I made rice and serve these over rice. 
Appetizer: When serving as an appetizer I use a toothpick to serve. 

Freezing this recipe:

Since this recipe calls for frozen meatballs if you want to make it for the freezer it's pretty simple.
Add all ingredients to your freezer bag.
Don't precook anything just add everything in together.
Then when you re ready to make it dump it into the slow cooker and cook according to directions.
