  1. I made this on 10/26/10 for the Crockpot/Rice Cooker Event over in KK's Forum. As SmoochTheCook did, I too used beef gravy ( I don't care for mushrooms ) There was 1 problem with this recipe. After cooking the meatballs were really,really mushy. If the meatballs were browned a bit before adding them, maybe that might help ? Or adding them closer to the end of the cooking time, couldn't hurt either. But, even with that little problem this recipe had a very nice " Comfort Food " feel to it. Thank you for posting, and " Keep Smiling :) "
     
  2. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, so EASY and what a great meal! I used corn, fresh carrots, fresh onion, minced garlic (because I only had plain diced tomatoes), and beef gravy (because my meatballs were chicken and because my son hates mushrooms). Yay, so glad you posted this. Thanks a million!
     
  3. This was a wonderful, fast and easy meal. It also smelled wonderful when we came thru the door. Thanks Lauralie for one that we will enjoy again.
     
  4. This is a great dish to make on a busy day -- it only took 5 minutes to get it in the slow cooker!! We enjoyed it, but the meatballs were mushy and kind of bland; I bought Armour brand. Maybe another kind would be better, but I will certainly try it again. (Maybe I'll save some meatballs from making spaghetti; since you put them in frozen, it's a real time saver.) There is enough yummy gravy left that next time I will make rice to go with it. This is a good recipe with hardly any prep time for a busy cook. Thanks, Lauralie41!
     
  5. This was really good. I did make bmcnhol's recipe #254561 the night before and froze them and I made my own mushroom gravy. The next day I threw it all in the crockpot and stirred it together, and after church we had a delicious meal awaiting us. Thanks for posting!
