These well-seasoned porcupine meatballs in a rich tomato sauce are one of my mom's best main dishes. I used to love this meal when I was growing up. I made it at home for our children, and now my daughters make it for their families. -Darlis Wilfer, West Bend, Wisconsin

CROCK-POT MEATBALLS IN BROWN GRAVY



Crock-Pot Meatballs in Brown Gravy image

These are baked meatballs that are simmered in a brown gravy in a crockpot. Served with mashed potatos and peas is the way we like to eat them. I don't know the actual ounce size of the gravy packets, but I was asked to type something to clarify it. The packets make 1 cup, so I think you'll be able to figure out what I mean. :)
