Usually I am lazy and I make my Swedish meatballs using the McCormick Swedish Meatballs seasoning packet. It works well, but I always use 2 packets, add 1 cup of bread crumbs, an egg, and use 2 pounds of beef instead of 1. That’s my semi-homemade
Swedish meatballs…
This recipe, however, is 100% homemade and definitely worth the time and effort if you can. And seriously, these meatballs will spoil you and you will never go to Ikea again just to go for their Swedish Meatballs (yes, I do know people who have gone there for lunch just to eat there).
Enjoy!
