Packed with amazing flavors, these slow cooker enchilada meatballs are an amazing appetizer or a perfect meal served over rice. This is a great meatball recipe made with just a few simple ingredients. A no-fuss slow cooker recipe that I have been enjoying for years!
I first made this recipe after a few weeks of giving birth to my second child. I always love to cook and try new recipes. My first child is one of the fussiest eaters. He only eats what he knows, and I cannot force him to eat anything else. We always have a soft spot for meatballs. When I saw this recipe, I immediately knew that my son will love every inch of these enchilada meatballs. And it was love at first bite! Since then, these enchilada meatballs have become one of our favorite menu rotations. I serve these meatballs either over rice or pasta. I also love to serve these delicious meatballs as a fun appetizer whenever I have guests coming over.
I love slow cooker recipes because they are the easiest to make. All you need are to dump everything in the slow cooker and set it to cook. Just like these enchilada meatballs. This easy slow cooker recipe is a must-try and very hard to resist!
