Swedish meatball are a family favorite they are delicious, super easy to make from scratch & really budget friendly. To save time in the kitchen make a double batch & freeze half to use later.
These meatballs are so tender & moreish that you may not get to freeze those extras you made for later.
Serve them with buttered pasta, creamy mash potatoes or fluffy rice & add garden salad too.
Enjoy, Kerri
