I haven't had Swedish meatballs in ages, but if I did, I would make them. Ikea meatballs = EWWWW!
These Swedish Meatballs do sound good and easy to make. I also dislike shopping intensely and will do almost anything to get out of it!
You hate shopping and going into Ikea is like torture! You are so opposite from me. I was traveling back to Flagstaff from Tucson last week and we spotted an IKEA just off the freeway and I was like a panting puppy dog waiting to get out of the car and go in!! LOL! The meatballs look great. I've never eaten at an Ikea though.
My middle child is a huge meatball fan. These would totally make her day! I can't wait to try them.
I have never had Swedish meatballs but man, they sound tasty!
My fiance absolutely loves Swedish meatballs. I had never even tried them until recently, and while they're not my favorite thing, I'd make these just for him because of how much he loves them. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
I've never been to Ikea, but I had no idea they had food? I totally have to take a trip now…or just make these, I can't decide!
I'll have to show my mom this recipe! My sister wants these at her baby shower!
I haven't had the ikea ones before – but these look delish!
