Swedish Turkey Meatballs

We enjoyed these meatballs for a nice change. I used cream of celery soup instead of the white sauce, turned out very nice, the seasonings were nice but could be a little stronger. Another time I think I would add some pepper flakes to give them a little zing. Thanks for sharing.

We really enjoyed this recipe. I don't care for lemon pepper seasoning so I used 1/2 tsp each dried thyme, tarragon, and black pepper. I only had one can of condensed cream of mushroom soup, so I used one serving of Di Neal's Condensed Cream of Soup Mix (#55408). Even my picky toddler liked the noodles.

This was perfect just as written. My husband generally dislikes anything but beef and potatoes, and this has become his favorite. He will often request this as a special treat. Thanks so much for sharing.

I was not crazy about the nutmeg in the meatballs. it gave a weird after taste. my DH said it tasted like the old folks home? I think I would leave it out next time. I cooked it in Marinara sauce to take away the nutmeg taste. thankfully I didn't have to toss the meatballs

OMG - sooo good! Coming from a beef farm, I made this with home grown ground beef. So good, my picky eater twin daughters kept asking for more. I used the sauce from Cream Sauce for Swedish Meatballs By wizkid. This has instantly become a family favorite. Uber Yummy!!!

We enjoyed these meatballs. I used fresh breadcrumbs along with alittle garlic and herb breadcrumbs too. I also used fresh chopped onion and used whipping cream in place of regular milk. Turned out delicious! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

I cut the recipe down to use 1 1/4 lbs ground turkey. Love the way you can do it on the website. I did not have lemon pepper so I used regular pepper. I don't like dried minced onion so I minced about 1/4 c of onion. I used only 1 can of chicken broth and cream of mushroom soup. I don't not eat pasta often so I put in a half bag of mixed veggies in about 1/2 through simmering in the broth. It was awesome. A great way to splurge in a little healthier way.

These were okay, but didn't taste like any Swedish meatballs I've ever had. The lemon pepper taste was noticeable and inauthentic. I might try them again without the lemon pepper, but I might just look for a better recipe. Made them with Cream Sauce for Swedish Meatballs, Cream Sauce for Swedish Meatballs, which was really good.

I had a hard time rating this! I loved LOVED the meatballs. But the sauce was so off. Very thin. I made my own white sauce and there was just too much liquid that it was runny. My DH wanted to kick it up with jalapenos????? I said What? This is a Swedish dish. My DS is yet to try it and I just know he will rate it 10 stars. For the simplicity of it not being tough and overly seasoned. Can you imagine living in my home one want to kick a dish up over the top and the over simple as possible. Made for ZWT 6 Thanks!!!

I made these meatballs for mine and SO's dinner on 5/16/10. Due to what was on hand a few substitutions were made which I don't think affected the end results they are as follows, Instead of using chopped parsley dried was used (adjust the amount to 1 Tablespoon ).I made the full amount of meatballs were made,but since it was just the two of us only 10 were used.( Froze the rest, for another meal ) For the canned chicken broth, 1 cube of chicken bouillon with 1 cup of boiling water was used. After simmering, the meatballs were removed and 1 can of soup was added to the remaining water. The meatballs were added back to the soup and simmered for about ten minutes more. Served this over rice. Both my SO and I thought this was pretty good but needed more pepper. I will make this again. Thanks for posting and " Keep Smiling :) "

We thought these were great. I wanted to make my own sauce so I had to work through the latter part of the recipe....I wasn't sure the sauce I wanted to make would combine well into the 2 cups of broth but somehow it all worked out. The meatballs alone were really awesome....I was questioning the lemon pepper with the nutmeg combo, including the amounts specified but it worked. Meatballs melted in the mouth!

Well, these are a real surprise, usually my family turns their noses up at ground turkey but they loved these meatballs! I think they may be better than any beef meatballs I have had. Really tasty, and so tender, thanks for this recipe.

This was very good. I made it with one cup white sauce and one can of condensed cream of mushroom soup, the sauce came out a little salty but I forgot to add some water in with the soup, so I'm sure that's why. Otherwise it was delicious, the meatballs were perfect, my kids asked for seconds. I will definately make this again sometime. Thanks for sharing.

Terrific recipe ... I cook the meatballs in the oven for about 30 mins. at 350 without turning and it still turns out terrific every time I make this recipe. I do however add a little sour cream at the end to the sauce. This recipe is a keeper :)

I didn't add the lemon pepper. I actually didn't see it listed at all and I'm glad I didn't. It just doesn't seem to fit in a swedish meatball for me. I also saw no reason to add the milk after I had the mixture in the bowl. What I ended up with was hands down the best swedish meatball I have ever eaten. I made my own white sauce which I thought turned out very well but I have no idea where the 2 cans of chicken broth come in. Seems like much to much liquid for me so I left it out entirely. I served noodles, meatballs, and a ladle of white sauce instead of mixing ingredients together.

the meatballs were very good!!but the rest didn't work well for me. i couldn't get the white sauce to thicken up. the flour curdled in the milk!

These were not bad. I left out the lemon pepper because i don't care for it, just used regular pepper instead. I made the gravy using home made white sauce, and it tasted pretty bland. I also baked the meatballs in the oven, which was much easier than frying them all. I think I would make the meatballs again, but if I made the gravy I would use the soup to give it more flavor.

The family loved it! I subbed 1/2 ts cayenne for the paprika (didn't have any), left out the parsley, added some sliced fresh spinach, and used cream of chicken soup. I halved the sauce and froze half of my meatballs for an easy dinner another night. Thanks for a great recipe!
