Easiest Naked Pantry Meatballs!

I adapted this recipe to fit my naked pantry and fridge. Also, I freeze hamburger in 1/2 pound blocks, so I needed a smaller recipe that didn't use a whole pound of ground meat. This makes about 16 meatballs, but I like to make 32 mini-meatballs! These are delicious and flavorful- enjoy!

• Ready In: 5 hrs 10 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 16 meatballs

Ingredients

• MEATBALLS

• 1⁄2 lb ground beef
• 1  egg
• 3  tablespoons  breadcrumbs
• 1  tablespoon parmesan cheese (sprinkle cheese)
• 1⁄8 teaspoon pepper
• 1⁄8 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon  italian seasoning

• SAUCE

• 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 6  ounces water (just fill the empty tomato sauce can about 3/4 of the way)

Directions

1. Combine tomato sauce and water in crock pot.
2. In a separate bowl, combine all meatball ingredients and knead until well-mixed.
3. Roll into balls of desired size and drop into tomato sauce mixture.
4. Let cook on medium-high heat about 5 hours or medium heat all day, stirring occasionally so meatballs are covered with sauce and don't dry out.
5. You're done!
