Justine- I agree with you. This recipe IS a winner!!! I made it tonight and everyone LOVED IT!!! Thank you SO much for such an easy and delicious recipe!!!
Love your vids! I am a crockpot/instant pot fanatic. After I retired, I have become the designated mess cook. Your recipes keep the "spice" in our marriage. Thanks!
The Kid fresh frozen beef meatballs sold at Kroger are very good tasting. This is another crockpot winner! I added some low fat ricotta cheese and cooked a little longer as my crockpot is older. Thank you for your delicious and easy crockpot recipes 😊
It needs it to cook the stuff properly, especially the pasta. The consistency came out good because the tortellini absorbed the liquid. If it had been cooked pasta she wouldn't have needed it.
I think for the pasta too. Those didn't look like frozen tortellini which is usually the kind I get. They didn't look dried either. What would you call that? And where in the store would I find it? Refrigerator section? Now if she cooked the pasta separately she could just do meatballs in sauce and add them together later. Any kind of pasta. Ravioli, angel hair, fettuccine, manicotti etc
@@recoveringsoul755 Yes, it's "fresh" pasta. They keep it in the refrigerator section and you cook it the way you would cook dry pasta but it takes less time.
Oh yes, it looks amazing. Did you know when you opened the slow cooker it put it back an hour in cooking. I worked for a catering company so I know that I'm so sorry.
I could use some advice from commenters here. I like the whole thought of this recipe, looks great. Two questions: Could anyone recommend a frozen meatball brand that they rate higher than others? Also, if I made my own meatballs, would I freeze them first and then proceed with this recipe? I’m sure my husband would like this, but I don’t think he “loves” the last brand I used whatever it was. I had never tried frozen meatballs before, but the shortcut for another recipe was nice to have. Suggestions? Thanks up front. ♥️🏈🇺🇸
Hello yes you can make up your meatballs, then freeze them and take out what you need. Then make your meal. I have tried many frozen brand meatballs and never liked any of them. I always make my own quick and easy! And my family and friends love them. 👍😀
@@user-gs7ov3os6p True. I’ll just take a separate day to make a bunch and freeze them. Some for this recipe and whenever I want them for another. My husband NEVER complains about anything I have ever made in 37+ years, but I could tell by his reaction they were not great. Luckily it wasn’t a big recipe. Don’t like to waste food. Thanks for all the responses! 👍♥️🏈🇺🇸
I would fry off those meatballs first to add flavour and get rid of the excess fat in the meat. I would love to know how many you're cooking for as you always make such large amounts of food.
Looks delicious & love watching you. You are so talented & interesting to watch. You could literally be a famous tv & online star if you’d wear a bit of makeup & fix your hair. .. You are a doll regardless. 💝
Does this girl actually ever do any meal prep, or is it all about packaged stuff? I am also certain that with a little more effort she could make it even more expensive.
You have some great creativity when it comes to your recipes yet i encourage you to always try and make your meatballs and meat recipes in general with your own hands so you know what is in it. The corporations that sell these premade items dont care what is unhealthy in their products.
Everything is either, frozen or store box. Convenient….yes; easy….yes, but that’s not cooking. And the amount of sodium brake all limits 😱. Once in a while is ok. But if I’m going to eat such an unhealthy meal, I rather go to a fast food.
@@joycebrown6079I've noticed this one is critical. Why even come here? It's uncalled for. Justin has great ideas! As for cooking this stove top? Nah. This is a time saver method. Today we need all the time saver methods available! Thanks, Justin!
Looks amazing and now that I'm retired I am cooking everyday for my wife and I. I'm very impressed by you.
Justine- I agree with you. This recipe IS a winner!!! I made it tonight and everyone LOVED IT!!! Thank you SO much for such an easy and delicious recipe!!!

Adding the ricotta sounds great. I’m going to do that. Thanks
Absolutely going to make this!! Looks so yummy 😋
Looks really good! Thank you🎉❤

🔥
Looks delicious
Awesome
I LOVE YOUR COOKING 👁️👃🏿👁️✌🏿✌🏿✌🏿
Would you put in the cheese and sour cream while it cooks?
I’m not trying to be rude or mean or anything, but is there anything that we can substitute like maybe the ground turkey meatballs and chicken broth?
Winner!!
Winner!!
Crockpot
dinner!!🤗🤗
I dont enjoy cooking so easy recipes i really appreciate. Thanks
Do you have to use Manara sauce, or can you use any kind of spaghetti sauce?
Im sure you can use whatever sauce you like not just marinara 💕
Make your own sauce very healthy .and use real hamburger balls.dont be lazy.
@@Carol-kq8ej I would make my own meatballs.
@@Carol-kq8ej yes I would too 💗homemade meatballs are amazing
😊
Can I do 4 hrs on low?
I add a jar of medium salsa to the prego. Make a big difference
I always add a pinch of sugar to my sauce. And I had that brand of frozen meatballs not the best. But everyone has different tastes! 😀
That bit of sugar to me makes it taste better also! 🥰🇺🇸
@@cynthiasanchez6346 My mothers Italian trick! 😍
The Angus ones from Walmart taste better
Thank You Binkey.
I've got a Kroger pizza in CP right now on top of butcher paper...been in 1 1/2 hours. Oven igniter went out. Thank you for this nice video.
Ok so frozen meatballs and tortollini are " ingredients" ?
Why the broth?
Trying for more flavor. Instead of water that’s ok though!
It needs it to cook the stuff properly, especially the pasta. The consistency came out good because the tortellini absorbed the liquid. If it had been cooked pasta she wouldn't have needed it.
I think for the pasta too. Those didn't look like frozen tortellini which is usually the kind I get. They didn't look dried either.

Thanks for the crockpot idea it was delicious and yummy
Need to add a sprinkle of Parmesan to the sauce! And sprinkle some over after in plate. The best taste! 😄

Meatballs are super easy to make ☺️

Esperienze,
Looks good. But think I will make my meatballs 😊
For sure 😁
Yup frozen meatballs are like eating ping pong balls...sorry but home made are so much better and easy to make.@jessicalinbarnett

Yeah
Frozen meatballs are awful, in my opinion. I want to know what goes into them.....
Nasty
I❤ spinach. Would add to
That sounds really good I love spinach too ☺️🥰
What ever happened to making stuff from SCRATCH!? “Open this package, open” that package…….!
I can’t eat beef. I can only have chicken or fish and ground turkey. Lost my interest at the beef broth.

Its a no for me
RUclips's got jokes...
If u make stuff in a crackpot u need to live a rundown trailer home,with a wife name tammy
That all could have been cooked and hot on the stove in less than a half hour.
Yes for sure! Less electric too! 😮
Slow cooking it makes the flavor better
Why don’t you go start your own RUclips page and leave this gal alone. Your always critical! Get a life how about it! 🤬

Thats not cooking, thats heating up processed frozen food in a package.
Thanks for making it easy ❤
