- Cook: Pour the gravy mixture over the meatballs in the crockpot. Cover with the lid.

Notes
- Using frozen meatballs saves time but you can use fresh or homemade meatballs if preferred.
- Adjust the thickness of the gravy by adding more broth for thinner gravy or cooking uncovered for a bit to thicken.
- For added flavor, sauté some onions or garlic and add them before cooking if desired.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
