Recipe Hack / Cooking Tips:
- Buy Store Bought Sauce: Why do the extra work when there are so many amazing brands out there. Take the extra time you would have been cooking sauce to do some self care. Rao’s is my favorite!
- One Ingredient Meatballs: Buy your favorite sausage. It can be turkey, meat, pork, or even vegan. Make sure not cooked. Take the meat out of the casing and roll into balls. Then put in slow cooker with sauce or on a sheet pan for quick dinner. Sausage is already seasoned for you so less work and lots of flavor!

First of all I love your site what brought me to it was the three ingredient crock pot spaghetti and meatballs, which is a favorite recipe in my house! I do have a question I have been asked would it be possible to double the meatballs and if so would that change anything else in the recipe I got meatball eaters.
