Slow Cooker Stuffed Turkey Meatballs♥

It's time for me to share one of my absolute favorite Slow Cooker recipes, Slow Cooker Stuffed Turkey Meatballs. I still remember the first time I tried this recipe. I wanted to try a new Meatball recipe that was simple to make, different and of course a Slow Cooker meal. I was going through our refrigerator and remember looking at my daughters mozzarella cheese sticks and thought, hmm I wonder how that would be stuffed in a meatball. And just like that I created a meal that is not only easy but delicious and full of flavor. Think Italian seasoning, turkey, sweet sausage, cheese and a Ragu Six Cheese sauce. Is your mouth watering? Because I know mine sure is. 

Pasta is a huge thing in our house, so I am constantly keeping things like Ragu and Spaghetti in stock. For this recipe I used ingredients that I almost always have in our house. You can also use your Slow Cooker on two different settings. Low for 5 - 6 hours or high for 2 - 2.5 hours. This time around I wanted to try a new sauce and cheese, so I went with Ragu Six Cheese sauce instead of my usual Ragu Traditional Sauce and I used fresh mozzarella. It definitely made a difference, next time around I want to try a different Ragu sauce, maybe Tomato, Garlic & Onion or Spicy Italian Style. Which Ragu sauce would you try for this recipe?

Here is the recipe for my Slow Cooker Stuffed Turkey Meatballs:
