A delicious and easy meal featuring savory meatballs with a rich gravy, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Meatballs and Gravy Ingredients
- 1 bag (26 oz) frozen meatballs (about 30–35 meatballs)
- 2 cups reduced-sodium beef broth
- 1 packet brown gravy mix
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- to taste Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preparation
- Spray the insert of the slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Dump the frozen meatballs directly into the slow cooker insert.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the beef broth, brown gravy mix, onion soup mix, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the sauce mixture over the meatballs and gently stir to coat. Cover with the lid and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours.
- In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Stir it into the slow cooker and cook for an additional 10 minutes, or until the gravy thickens.
Serving
- Serve hot over mashed potatoes or egg noodles, and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, consider adding sautéed mushrooms or onions before cooking. You can adjust the gravy thickness by using more or less cornstarch. Serve with a side of green vegetables for a balanced meal. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days or freeze for up to three months.
