Easy Swedish Meatballs


This is another “prepare early” recipe. Preparing it the night before will save you a little time. You can pour the sauce over the meatballs and just pop it in the oven about 40 minutes before meal time. You can serve this with spaghetti too. It will not be a red sauce, but will still be tasty. If you are having a party, increase the recipe and make the meatballs small enough to pick up with toothpicks.

                    1/2 Lb. Hamburg                              1/8 Cup Milk

                    1/4 Cup Bread Crumbs ¼ cup Onion – Chopped

  • You can serve this with mashed or baked potato, green beans, corn, carrots or any favorite fruit or salad. You can add a beef gravy, but with the sauce, you really don’t need one.
  • This can be mixed together the night before and just popped into the oven the next day. Letting it come to room temperature for about an hour works best.
