Swedish Meatballs are a big hit in my house. I always double this recipe and make enough to freeze. They freeze well and make a great meal when you don’t feel like cooking. My kind of dinner lol. Sometimes you just don’t have time or the want to prepare a dinner at night. Open the freezer in the morning and pullout  a container of these oh so delicious meatballs!

I have made quite a few Swedish Meatball recipe in my time. I remember making them in home economics class in high school.

That’s how long I have been making these meatballs lol. So I have blended the best of the recipe I have tried into this one recipe. Sometimes you like a little bit of this or a little bit of that from each recipe.

So why not combine all the things you like in one recipe. It took a few tries to come up with this recipes. The other recipes were pretty good too. They just wren’t as good as this one. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

PIN IT!!
