Swedish Meatballs

Swedish Meatballs

Swedish Meatballs are a classic recipe. This one was was passed down to me and if I were to guess, the original recipe many many years ago may have been on a Lipton Onion Soup box.

These meatballs are easily made and have a bit of an unusual flavor with the addition of cinnamon. The gravy is made with an onion soup base that is thickened with a mixture of flour and water. They are comfort food at its coziest.

Since we are cooking cozy, serve these meatballs with egg noodles or mashed potatoes. They are the perfect pairings.

Meatballs really do make a great meal or appetizer. Check out Creamy Mushroom Turkey Meatballs, Spaghetti and Meatballs,Buffalo Chicken Meatballs and Cranberry Chili Glazed Meatballs for some other ways to enjoy them.

If you are a  fan of french onion soup you are going to love French Onion Chicken Thighs.

Add the onion soup mix and water to a large saucepan.

Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered.
