  • 1/4 cup A1 steak sauce
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Add the meatballs and sliced onions to the slow cooker and stir to combine.

Notes

For best results, use beef meatballs to maintain the classic Salisbury steak flavor. Avoid swapping out the cream of beefy mushroom soup or the beef broth. For extra veggie flavor, add sliced mushrooms at the start of cooking. Great served over mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
