Ingredients

▢ 2 pounds frozen meatballs
▢ 1 1/2 cups teriyaki sauce
▢ 20 ounces pineapple chunks

Place all the ingredients in the bottom of a slow cooker and stir together.

Notes

Storage: refrigerate any leftovers in an air-tight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

Helpful tips: for a thicker sauce, drain the pineapple juice before adding it to the slow cooker. Or you can mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1 tablespoon cold water and stir into to the slow cooker for 30 minutes before serving.
