If you want to enjoy the same great flavors of this recipe but don't want to spend a lot of prep time making the meatballs, here's what you can do Simply omit the breadcrumbs and the egg. Brown the ground meats in a skillet, and scoop the meat into the slow cooker using a slotted spoon. Drain some of the fat, reserving a couple of tablespoons for the gravy. Continue to do the gravy in the skillet and add to the slow cooker.

I love Swedish meatballs! I can't wait to try out this recipe. I think it would be great for a board game party.

I was always under the impression that I could not or SHOULD not add my sour cream until the end- the last 15 minutes or so. But in this delicious sounding recipe, she says to add it right along with the meatballs and let it slow cook for the 4 hours. Her recipe uses a combo of beef and pork. I think this will deliver a flavorful and savory meatball! Normally we eat tons of ground turkey in this house and pretty much NO beef.

I have purchased frozen Swedish meatballs before, but I have never made them from scratch. These look and sound delicious. I think I will make them this weekend and serve them with wide egg noodles and a green vegetable. I know my family will love them. I will use a lean ground beef just to cut out some of the fat. Can't wait to make these!

Swedish meatballs are a favorite at our house. I will be making this recipe and serving it with baby potatoes. I love all the spices but would substitute lean ground beef and lean ground pork for fattier regular meat. I would also use lower fat 1% sour cream. Looks delicious!
