Method
- 1Set your slow cooker to high.
- 2In a non-stick fry pan cook bacon until browned, place into slow cooker with all the other ingredients except for the meatballs. Mix so all incorporated. Place lid on to heat up.
- 3Meanwhile place all the meatball ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Mix with your hands. Divide mixture into 8-12 meatballs, rolling them so they are round. You can now either pan fry them just to brown the outside or you can just place them straight into the sauce in the slow cooker.
- 4Cook in the slow cooker for 2-3 hours. Occasionally use a spoon to coat them with the sauce.
- 5When you are ready to serve cook the pasta as per instructions. Pull out the meatballs and place the pasta into the sauce; mix so all the pasta has been coated. Serve into 4 bowls, placing the meatballs on top.
