Crock pots, slow cookers, whatever name you prefer are the key to when a busy day ahead prevents you from coming home to cook for the family. Having the main entree in a crock pot so you just have to worry about sides with it equals less stress on you!
This recipe is a simple adaption from my Creamy Crock Pot Meatballs using beef and some whole wheat flour as well. They taste just as good using turkey!
The is a family favorite in my house with some gluten free brown rice pasta under there. I served myself one here for lunch as they are hefty and large, but for dinner at lease 2 or 3 would be perfect.
