Slow Cooker Meatballs & Pasta

A simple and comforting one-pot meal made with tender meatballs, soft pasta, and rich tomato sauce.

Ingredients

• 500g meatballs (fresh or frozen)
• 2 cups dry pasta
• 3 cups marinara sauce

• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• Salt and black pepper
• Grated cheese (optional)

Instructions

Place the meatballs in the slow cooker. Add the dry pasta on top. Pour the marinara sauce and water over everything, making sure the pasta is covered. Season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
