Prep Time : 10-15 minutes
Cook Time : 6-8 hours  
Yield : 6 servings

​

Ingredients:

1 pound small meatballs (store bought or homemade) - we use frozen turkey

24oz jar of pasta sauce (about 2.5 cups)

1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped (we use baby carrots)

1/2 pound green beans, ends cut off and cut into bite-sized pieces (frozen green beans taste awful in this so fresh is the only way to go)

1 medium-sized zucchini, ends cut off and cut into bite-sized pieces

1 medium-sized yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)

4 cups low sodium chicken broth *not needed until day of cooking

Directions: (eat that day)

Add all ingredients to your crock pot and add chicken broth.

Cook on “low” setting for 6-8 hours, or until veggies are cooked through

and tender.

Top with parmesan cheese. Serve with fresh Italian bread or baked garlic

bread.

​

Directions: (Freezer Meal)

Add all ingredients, except chicken broth, to your freezer bag.

Remove as much air from the freezer bag as possible, seal, and lay flat in

your freezer.

The night before cooking, move frozen bag to your refrigerator to thaw. (I often forget to do this and I put this in the crock pot the morning of and it always comes out great)

The morning of cooking, pour contents of freezer bag into your slow

cooker and add chicken broth.

Cook on “low” setting for 6-8 hours, or until veggies are cooked through

and tender.

Top with parmesan cheese. Serve with fresh Italian bread or baked garlic

bread.

Nutrition:

Not sure but it is listed as a healthy meal.

My notes:  

This is another one of our "go to" crock pot meals.  Very full of flavor.
