Pineapple chunks!
Do you have a teriyaki marinade that you use?
Any works!
So where does the chili garlic sauce come into play? I presume with everything that goes in the Crock-Pot it just doesn’t say….
Yes, it goes in with the rest!
Excellent Recipe. Great Menu Choices. YUMMY !!! I’ll Definitely Try It.
Thanks for stopping by!
sounds promising, taste afterwards ok too.
but spending 4 hours on pathetic meatballs.
It just doesn’t worth it.
Meatballs are not going to turn into a pumpkin or something very special.
Nice try though ))
Sorry, this recipe didn’t work out for you, Vlad!
These were an extra, added bonus to my main course of chicken fettuccine Alfredo. Not everyone wants pasta so this was a great second option. Not a main meal, of course.
Wow, that’s brutal. You use a crockpot. You shouldn’t be standing there waiting for the recipe to end. This is perfect for a work potluck.
