Slow Cooker Sweet Hawaiian Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe
I remember when I first began going to sushi restaurants - I am allergic to shellfish and could only eat things like the Spicy Tuna Roll and chicken teriyaki...
I had never even had Chicken Teriyaki until my mid-20s!
Now I love the flavor and while this isn't chicken, it is still a super fun twist on the flavor, and who doesn't just love meatballs?!
This sweet Slow Cooker Sweet Hawaiian Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe is really more of an appetizer recipe.
But it can also easily be served as a lunch or dinnertime meal with a simple side of rice and veggies.
You can even throw them on a Hawaiian roll to make a sandwich and serve it up with a nice side salad.
The flavor combination between the pineapple preserves and the teriyaki lends a really fun twist and the ketchup and garlic keeps it from being too sweet.
They are just delicious all the way around!
Don't they look delicious? They remind me of the Swedish Meatballs people used to make in a slow cooker for office parties.
Or those grape jelly and ketchup meatballs that are such a holiday party staple.
I remember I used to sit there at the crockpot towards the end of the party and just pick them out one by one.
I didn't even bother with a plate at that point! Ha ha!
If you have little ones at home, I am sure they'd love this Instant Pot Pineapple Teriyaki Meatballs Recipe as a tasty afternoon snack after school, or even just for a fun lunch while they are home during the summer.
Look how delicious they are!
