Ingredients
Meatballs and Vegetables
- 1 bag frozen meatballs (32 ounces)
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
Seasonings
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Gravy
- 2 packages brown gravy mix (0.87 ounces each)
- 1 3/4 cups water
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Add the frozen meatballs, sliced mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder to the slow cooker. This forms the flavorful base for the dish.
- Mix Gravy: In a small bowl, whisk together the two packages of brown gravy mix with 1 3/4 cups of water until smooth and well combined.
- Combine in Slow Cooker: Pour the prepared gravy mixture evenly over the meatballs and mushrooms inside the slow cooker, ensuring all the ingredients are coated with the gravy.
- Cook Slowly: Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low for 4 to 5 hours, or alternatively cook on high for 2 to 3 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and the meatballs to become tender and infused with the savory gravy.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked through and the gravy has thickened, the Salisbury steak meatballs are ready to be served. Spoon the meatballs and gravy onto plates or bowls and enjoy this hearty comfort meal.
Notes
- You can add a side of mashed potatoes or egg noodles to complement the gravy and meatballs.
- For a thicker gravy, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking to reduce excess liquid.
- Frozen meatballs make this recipe quick and easy, but fresh or homemade meatballs can be substituted.
- Adjust seasoning to taste, adding salt or pepper if desired.
