For a richer flavor, consider browning the meatballs in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the sauce mixture. These meatballs are excellent served with toothpicks as an appetizer, or over rice or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
