This is an excellent recipe. It is full of flavor and fun. This can be served as an appetizer, or as a main dish. I have now served it both ways. This recipe makes an excellent pot luck recipe too.

• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

• 2 tbsp. honey
• 4 tsp. sesame seeds
• Garnish with 4 green thinly sliced green onions

Directions:

1. Add one bag of frozen meatballs to a lined slow cooker (for easy clean up)
2. In a bowl add remaining ingredients except, green onions and sesame seeds. Mix well
3. Add sauce ingredients to the slow cooker and mix well. Covering all the meatballs.
4. Cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The time will vary.
