Step-by-Step Instructions

Start by placing the frozen meatballs in the bottom of your slow cooker, spreading them out evenly.
Take a medium onion and slice it thinly. Layer the onion slices over the meatballs.
Pour the canned French onion soup over the meatballs and onions, completely covering them.
Evenly sprinkle the Lipton French Onion Soup Mix over the entire mixture.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours.
Once cooking time is up, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top of the meatballs.
Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the heat to melt the cheese.
Spoon the meatballs and sauce over mashed potatoes, rice, or toasted hoagie rolls to serve.
