Crockpot Meatballs and Tomato Sauce Recipe
This tasty Crockpot Meatballs and Tomato Sauce Recipe is also a great freezer meal! With end of the school year activities in full swing I needed a bunch of prep ahead meals that I could make for my family. This is one of the 20 Slow Cooker Freezer Meals in 4 Hours Plan.
I served the meatballs and sauce over cooked pasta and with garlic bread sticks and a side salad. My son thought this was delicious! In fact, he is a huge fan of spaghetti and meatballs and said this was one of his all time favorites. Be sure to serve it with Parmesan cheese on top!
Crockpot Meatballs and Tomato Sauce Recipe is so good and it’s an easy freeze slow cooker supper that everyone will love. My whole family loved this complete crockpot dinner meal and they want me to make it again soon! This is a great recipe to double to serve a large crowd. It would be great for game day!
Be sure that you invest in a good quality slow cooker. Our favorite is this programmable cook and carry 6qt oval slow cooker. A great way to save money is to purchase your meat in bulk from ZayconFresh. I hope your family enjoys this crockpot meatballs and tomato sauce recipe as much as my family did.

If I make homemade meatballs, about what size and how many would you suggest making? I would assume they’d be smaller… Thanks!
I would suggest 1 inch in size – https://www.stockpilingmoms.com/2012/11/way-better-bbq-meatballs/
Thank you! 🙂
Does this meal need to be thawed in the fridge the night before?
I would overnight just to get it out of the bag easier 🙂
How many ounces is the bag of meatballs?
14 oz package
If i were to make this in a slow cooker would I put it in for the same time as a crock pot?
Yes a slow cooker and crock pot are the same 🙂
Hi, would these homemade meatballs need to be cooked before freezing or do they go in raw?
Thanks!
You can honestly do either way!
How many does this recipe serve please?
