Sweet Pineapple Meatballs -Little Dipper Crock Pot (or Stove Top) Appetizer

I wanted to try an appy that was a little different than sweet and sour, but still used pineapple... These Sweet Pineapple Meatballs were a big hit at Sunday dinner! Four ingredients, which includes the frozen meatballs, and about five minutes time... That's pretty easy folks:@) Since I wanted each bite to have both meat and pineapple, I cut the meatballs in half. My Little Dipper Crock Pot only holds up to 2 cups, so the leftover pineapple was stored in the fridge to have as a snack at another time. I made them in the Little Dipper Crock Pot, but it would be even quicker and easier on the stove.
