Tomato and Parmesan Meatball Appetizer -Little Dipper Slow Cooker or Larger

The idea behind these Tomato and Parmesan Meatballs was to make a tomato sauce that's extra thick and would stick to the meatballs instead of dripping off... Making it less messy for a grab and go appy. Mission accomplished:@) I used my Little Dipper Crock Pot, I think this would make enough sauce for up to 14oz of meatballs. Simply double, etc for larger slow cookers. 

Just a quick review,

the little dipper is the dip size crock pot that holds about 2 C.
