swedish meatballs
My family loves when I make these meatballs. We like Mashed potatoes with our Swedish Meatballs, rather then noodles, but sure noodles would be good also. I never measure anything it's always been a little of this and a little of that. I hope everyone enjoys these as much as we do!
