Ingredients
  

For the Meatballs
  • 1 pound ground beef (halal)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 each egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Sauce
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (halal)
  • 1 cup beef broth (halal)
  • 1 cup sour cream (halal)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, egg, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until fully blended but do not overwork the meat.
  2. Using your hands, scoop out about 1-2 tablespoons of the meat mixture and roll it into golf ball-sized meatballs. Place them on a platter.
Cooking
  1. Arrange the meatballs at the bottom of your Crock Pot.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, and half of the sour cream. Pour this mixture evenly over the meatballs.
  3. Set your Crock Pot on low for about 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. Stir occasionally if possible.
  4. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the remaining sour cream.
  5. Serve the tender meatballs over egg noodles or mashed potatoes, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and enjoy!

Notes

For substitutions, you can swap ground beef for ground chicken or turkey. To store leftovers, cool down to room temperature, transfer to an airtight container, and refrigerate for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently to preserve creamy texture.
