Steps
Place the frozen meatballs in a slow cooker. Pour the jar of Alfredo sauce over them and stir gently to coat.
Add the black pepper, dried oregano, dried thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes. Stir so the seasonings are distributed through the sauce.
Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, and milk to the slow cooker. Stir everything together until evenly combined.
Cover and cook on LOW for about 4 hours, until the meatballs are heated through and the sauce is hot and creamy. Avoid prolonged cooking beyond this time so the sauce does not overheat or separate.
Check the sauce before serving. If oil from the sun-dried tomatoes has caused separation, stir in another splash of milk until the sauce comes back together.
Top the meatballs with additional Parmesan cheese and dried parsley. Serve over mashed potatoes or rice.
Notes
The recipe uses frozen, fully cooked meatballs. The author notes that sun-dried tomato oil may cause the sauce to separate; add a splash of milk and stir before serving. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
