Use your hands to form the meat into balls, then put them in the slow cooker

Spread the marinara sauce on top of the meatballs

Put the lid on and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or high for 3 to 4 hours, or until the meatballs are fully cooked

At the end of the cooking time, add the shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the meatballs

Serve hot, and if you want, top with more parsley
