Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  • 1 packet French onion soup mix
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 cups beef broth

  • 1 cup caramelized onions

Instructions

 

  1. Prepare the Meatball Mixture: In a bowl, combine the ground beef, French onion soup mix, breadcrumbs, egg, and milk. Mix until well combined but not overworked. Form the mixture into small, evenly sized meatballs.
  2. Arrange in Crock Pot: Place the meatballs in a single layer at the bottom of the Crock Pot.
  3. Add Broth: Pour the beef broth over the meatballs, ensuring they are mostly submerged.
  4. Cook: Set the Crock Pot to low and cook for 6 hours, or on high for 3 hours, until the meatballs are cooked through.
  5. Add Cheese and Onions: In the last 30 minutes of cooking, top the meatballs with caramelized onions and sprinkle with shredded Swiss cheese. Cover and continue cooking until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve the meatballs hot, with a garnish of fresh parsley and extra caramelized onions if desired, alongside mashed potatoes or noodles.
