Directions

In a large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, cheese, pepper, and salt. Stir in the eggs and add the beef. Mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1 1/2 in. balls. In a large skillet, brown the meatballs in batches over medium heat and drain.

Put the onion, pepper, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, and tomato paste in a slow cooker. Stir in the garlic and seasonings. Add the meatballs, stirring gently to coat. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Remove the bay leaves and serve over spaghetti.
