Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs by Flavor Mosaic

When our family and friends come over for our annual holiday get together they will love these yummy Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs.  What I will love is spending time visiting with our guests at the party instead of spending time in the kitchen cooking and preparing holiday appetizers thanks to Farm Rich Frozen Meatballs.

I love that Farm Rich has so many easy and time saving holiday party appetizers including Mozzarella Sticks, Loaded Potato Skins, Pepperoni Pizzeria Bites, Meatballs, Toasted Ravioli, and Breaded Mushrooms.  They all look so wonderful that I caused a traffic jam in the grocery store aisle trying to decide on which one to buy. Should I get the Loaded Potato Skins, the Pepperoni Pizzeria Bites, or the Italian Style Frozen Meatballs? They also have Original Frozen Meatballs or Turkey Meatballs but since my store had the Italian style, I went bought those.

Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs - In Process

For the Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs, start by by adding the Farm Rich Frozen meatballs directly into the slow cooker.  No need to thaw.  I loved that I didn’t have to prepare and bake the meatballs ahead of time before putting them into the slow cooker.

Then make the sauce by mixing together in a bowl the Hoisin sauce, vinegar, water, sesame oil, soy sauce, Sriracha, garlic, and ginger.  Pour the mixture over the frozen meatballs in the slow cooker.  Cook on low for about 3-1/2 to 4 hours.

When the meatballs are ready, serve them on white rice and sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top to garnish.

That is all there is to it!  Easy!  Now it is your turn to make these Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs with gluten-free Farm Rich Frozen Meatballs. For which holiday party will you make these Slow Cooker Asian Sesame Meatballs?
