This recipe works out to be 4 smallish servings or 3 large. We both had skipped lunch the day I made this so we had 2 large dinners and a couple small lunches available
Prep Time: 3 mins
Cook Time: 6 hrs
Servings: 4-6
Ingredients:
1 (16-ounce) package frozen cheese ravioli
1 to 1½ jars of jar pasta sauce (they range from 15 to 22 ounces, so use your judgement)
½ bag meatballs (you need 20-30 depending on size)
½ can of evaporated milk (you can freeze the rest for later if you need to)
½ cup Italian cheeses
A little water if your sauce is thick
Directions:
- Oil or spray the crockpot insert
- Pour half the jar of pasta sauce in the bottom of the crockpot

20 to 30 minutes before serving:

Freezer meal directions:
- Toss all your ingredients except the shredded cheeses in a gallon sized bag
- Place the cheese in a separate sandwich baggie and either tape it to the larger bag or place it inside it.
- Allow the meal to defrost overnight in the refrigerator & then follow the directions listed above to cook (except you don’t do layers)
