Having an easy to make recipe like this Crock Pot Meatball Sub recipe helps me get everything done for the holidays and have a great meal on the table for my family.

This recipe has only 4 ingredients and as long as you have a crock pot, and who doesn't these days you can have dinner on the table in under 4 hours if you are in a hurry or it can cook for the standard 8 hours in a crock pot on low.

 

Easy Home Meals, Easy Family Recipes,

 

If you plan to be out all day at work or running around this is a perfect recipe.

It will feed a family of 4 to 6 easily.

So I like to stock the freezer with ingredients from the frozen and dairy section of the grocery store.

Keeping ingredients on hand with a well-stocked freezer is the only thing that gets me through this time of year with my sanity still intact.

Using the crock pot is the second sanity saver I have.

Throw all the ingredients in and I don't have to worry about what I am going to do about dinner. 

Why I Use Frozen Foods?

Frozen foods are real foods frozen at their peak of ripeness or prepared and seasoned by chefs.

There are over 3700 types of frozen foods available ranging from fruits and vegetables to sweet treats like ice cream and frozen desserts.

You can find any cuisine you feel like eating and can find options that cover snack-time, breakfast, lunch, dinner, entertaining and specialty food occasions in the frozen department of your favorite grocery store.

Frozen foods can save you money and are packaged in perfect portions for my family.

Frozen Foods make my life easier.

4 Ingredient Dinner recipe: Easy Crock Pot Meatball Sub Sandwiches

Head to the grocery store and check out the great selection of frozen meatballs available in the frozen section.

There are beef or turkey meatballs, seasoned or unseasoned meatballs. Large meatballs or small meatballs.

The small meatballs would make for a great meatball appetizer instead of serving subs for dinner you could also use this recipe for a holiday meatball appetizer recipe for any holiday party you may be hosting.

Or instead of using sub rolls you could serve the small meatballs on slider buns.

They would be easier to serve and handle at a holiday gathering.

    Trying this tonight! I am a huge fan of crockpot recipes for a few reasons. One, because I love preparing a meal and forgetting about it. Two, when the weather is warmer such as today (68 degrees) it's nice having a meal that doesn't make the house hot like running the oven. And three, it's usually such an easy recipe to follow and always tastes amazing.
