Slow Cook Meatball and Veg Casserole

This is healthy and delicious and takes 10 minutes to chop up and throw in the slow cooker. A great winter warmer. Once again you can add flavourings and vegetables to suit what's in the fridge and store cupboard! My 20 month year old loves this and she has discerning tastes to say the least!
   
15% or less fat Beef Meatballs  
Red onion 
Yellow Pepper (you can use any colour) 
2 Garlic Cloves crushed  
2tsp Fresh Ginger grated 
2  Potatoes medium sized 
Courgette  
Sprinkle of Dried Mixed Herbs 
Jar of Tomato Pasta Sauce  
Salt and Pepper to taste 

Place Meatballs in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Roughly chop in Onion and Potato and sprinkle over the meatballs, Add Garlic and Ginger over top as well. 
Empty the jar of Pasta Sauce evenly over ingredients in slow cooker, I rinsed out the pasta jar with approx 1/3 cup water and added this liquid to the slow cooker as well. 
Chop up the Pepper and Courgette, first add the Pepper then Courgette on top, then sprinkle with Dried Mixed Herbs, add Salt and Pepper. 
Cook on high for 4 hours, check Potatoes for softness as cooking time may depend on your slow cooker settings. 
Serves 4.
