Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
  • You don't have to use beef meatballs. Use turkey, chicken, pork, or meat substitutes.
  • Want it spicy? Add 1 tsp of red pepper flakes.
  • You can use fresh or frozen peppers and onions to make it even easier.
  • I don't recommend cooking this on low since the meatballs are frozen.
  • Use frozen meatballs that were cooked before freezing.
  • If you want your dish to be saucier don't drain the pineapple chunks.
