Quick Swedish Meatballs

"This recipe comes from a bag of frozen meatballs, and it is very easy, quick and yummy. I followed the recipe exactly with the exception of doubling the sauce and adding a few more meatballs than called for, and I served over noodles. This is a terrific weeknight meal that will be enjoyed by adults and kids alike."

  1. This is a really a quick and delicious meal. I used 16 precooked turkey meatballs that had been frozen. They were warmed in the oven and then combined with the sauce and simmered as instructed in the recipe. It was necessary for me to add additional milk. I don't think that the amount of sauce would support 24 meatballs. In place of the sour cream, I used plain yogurt. This was served over Recipe #180273.
     
  2. I don't understand what is Swedish in this recepy!
     
  3. The one thing missing that makes these more traditional Swedish meatballs is coffee. Instant is fine. It give them a great flavor.
     
  4. Super quick and delicious. I used HEB home style meatballs and egg noodles. The kids loved it. I loved it. Very quick and very easy. Bravo!
     
  5. No, it wasn't as good as from scratch Swedish meatballs, but it was as close as could be expected considering the ingredients. I doubled the milk, nutmeg & sour cream. Also, I used a whole family sized (26 oz) can of soup. I put everything EXCEPT the meatballs into a skillet & brought to a boil. I added leftover uncooked egg noodles, (about 6 oz) cooking them for a few minute while zapping the (thawed) meatballs, which I then added to the skillet. I finished according to the recipe, although my cooking time was a few minute less.

I live in beautiful San Diego where there's never nothin to do. We almost never have days where you can't get outdoors. For fun I love to read, cook, take road trips with my grandson, whom I raise. Take long walks along the beach, bays and lakes. My live in grandson is 12 and the light of my life. I've been teaching him to fish, or should I say I'm exposing him to lake fishing, the people we meet along the way are teaching him while I read and watch. He's dying to go ocean fishing, that one makes me a bit more nervous, but we'll start that soon, probably from piers to start. Nick's only one of my grandchildren though, I have a total of 13, three live in Kansas, the land of Oz. The last time I visited them, it was Christmas time and when I stepped off the plane, the cold air took my breath away and standing there waiting for me in a short-sleeved T-shirt, was my son-in-law. Needless, to say, I spent many days there staying indoors praying for the day I could get back to sunny California -- I never had to endure snow the whole time, thank God! Twenty degrees daily was way out of my comfort zone by a very large margin. There truly is no place like home. I have 8 other grandchildren that are fortunate enought to live in San Diego too. We spend weekends doing things together such as taking in the zoo, wild animal park, Sea World, Knotts Soak City water park (summer), museums, fishing, picknicking and just hanging out. They all love to help grandma cook in the kitchen. I have many cookbooks and can read them like I'd read a novel. My passions are my family, my two boston terriers, Tuffy and Oreo, and gardening, cooking and reading -- oh yeah, I'm totally addicted to Zaar. I don't really have many pet peeves, but a biggie is mean, obnoxious people and those who think they know it all, and liars, I can pick out a deceitful person it an instant. If you can't trust someone, then nothings worth salvaging in the relationship. I hate those who disrespect the environment (no I'm not a tree hugger) but I do hate to see people litter and fail to do simple things such as picking up after themselves in the outdoors such as parks and beaches, and how easy is it to recycle? It's really not too difficult to make an impact on the environment if everybody takes responsibility for their "trash."
