Notes

  • While this recipe calls for frozen meatballs, you can also use homemade meatballs that you’ve prepared in advance and put in the freezer to use at a later time.
  • If you feel like the sauce is too thin, add a bit more cornstarch to help make it thicker.
  • To shorten the cooking time, cook on high for 2 hours.
  • If leaving the meatballs in the crockpot for serving, turn to the “keep warm” setting after adding the sour cream and parsley.
Storage: Store crockpot Swedish meatballs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
