For a richer flavor, consider browning the meatballs in a skillet with a little oil before adding them to the slow cooker.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold water and stir it into the sauce during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
These meatballs are delicious served with toothpicks as an appetizer or over egg noodles as a main course.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
