Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients

  • 12 ounce jar chili sauce (about 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons)
  • ¾ cup grape jelly (about 10 ounces)
  • 28-32 ounce bag of frozen meatballs* (about 60 meatballs), I use frozen gluten free meatballs

Optional Thickener

  • 4 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons cold water

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients in a slow cooker.
  • Cook for 1½-2 hours on the high setting or 3-4 hours on the low setting.
  • Mix cornstarch and cold water in a bowl. Slowly stir into slow cooker to thicken sauce. Serve on warm.

Notes

*Make sure to use frozen meatballs marked as "gluten free," to make this recipe gluten free.
*Ingredient sizes varied in grocery stores. This recipe will still taste great, give or take a few ounces on all items.
*For a slightly healthier option, Whole Foods (and other health food stores) have an Organic Grape Jelly and an Organic Sweet Chili Sauce.
