Teriyaki Meatballs

Okay, this is a dish I threw together for a "linger-longer" at church. It tastes great over rice and is easiest if you do it in a slow cooker. I use a specific brand of teriyaki sauce because it tastes the best and the serving size is just about right(though a little more expensive to buy). Not to mention it has the lowest amount of sugar content that I could find, which is good for my son and I.

Ingredients:
  • 1 Bottle of "Veri Veri Teriyaki" Teriyaki sauce. Made by Soy Vay.
  • 1 sweet bell pepper, like to cut this in large pieces.
  • 1 Onion, cut in large pieces(your choice as to onion type).
  • 1 Bag of frozen meatball(come as 2 lb bags, I believe) ** you can use frozen sausage meatballs if you want to spice it up.
  • Salt and Pepper to your taste. *** I like to add Worcestershire sauce and minced garlic---you figure it out the amount you prefer : )
Place all ingredients in the slow cooker, give it a stir, and place the cooker on low for 6 hours( or over night. I like to stir it after 4 hours to evenly cover the meat balls. FYI: frozen meatballs will produce liquid while they are thawing/cooking so you want to cook them long enough for the sauce to reduce enough to make a nice sauce consistency( that is why I say 6 hrs it could be more or less depending on slow cooker brand).
** Another quick tip that I use is frozen bell pepper melange. I have bought them and used a couple handfuls.
When done lay them over white rice of rice noodles.
