Swedish Meatballs – (Slow Cooker Recipe)
If you are planning a party and need ideas to expand your menu beyond the chips and dips, Swedish Meatballs will do the trick.
You can make these from scratch, or buy ready-made Italian Style frozen meatballs, and cook them in your own sauce.
I actually tried the ready-made meatballs, and they taste wonderful, with so much less work.
