I remember the first time I had to bring a dish to a gathering with with my husband's family. It was pretty early on in our relationship and I really wanted to make a good impression. I knew early on that Michael was the man I was going to marry and I wanted his family to like me. It was a potluck dinner and they had all of the basics covered, so I knew I wanted to bring an appetizer. Then I remembered these meatballs that my mom used to make. These were quick and easy and I felt that I had a winner. I was right they were a success. I think only two people said they didn't like them. But my Michael's parents enjoyed them and most importantly Michael and his son loved them. I usually only make these for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but occasionally I surprise the guys with them for dinner during the week and they devour them. I usually make these in the slow cooker, but they can also be prepared on the stove or in the oven.
