Slow cooker meatball soup

Meatball soup for the Crockpot
Gluten free and Dairy free


The hardest part of this recipe is making the meatballs, they are time consuming. Make a big batch and save some for your spaghetti night.

1 lb of ground beef
1/2 tsp of Italian seasoning
1 egg
1/2 Cup of Nature Path's Corn Flakes cereal.

Place the corn flakes in a food processor and blend to a coarse consistency. In a large bowl add the corn flakes, egg, Italian seasonings and the ground beef. Blend together and form into bite sized meatballs. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet and cook the meatballs until the ground beef is no longer pink.

Transfer cooked meatballs onto a plate covered with paper towels to drain off the fat.

At this point you can freeze all the finished meatballs to save for a later use or use them right away in a tomato sauce for Gluten free spaghetti or make the slow cooker recipe below. They freeze very well so I tend to triple this recipe and freeze them until I need them.
