Crockpot Swedish Meatballs
So, as Autumn is upon us my crockpot is now is full gear. Churning out some delicious and cozy meals for the fam on some of the very cool nights we've been enjoying. Here is a super easy crockpot recipe that I made after we had spent last weekend on a fun but always exhausting trip to Ikea...cause we bring all 3 kidlets and think they'll behave perfectly as we wander around thinking we can be there for hours on end. Hah, yeah maybe B.C. (Before Children!)
I just love Ikea and we always have to have a little something from their cafeteria/restaurant whenever we go partly to tame the kids but mostly because I always want the Swedish Meatballs and Lignonberries..YUM! So this meal was my faux-Ikea dinner since I always mean to buy their frozen Swedish Meatballs to bring home but ALWAYS seem to forget since every time we get to the checkout it seems like we are rushing out of there for fear that the kids (or more importantly us parents) will have a meltdown!
So here we have it, Crockpot Swedish Meatballs! The ingredient list is few but the taste is devine, not quite the Ikea stand-out but close enough for our hungry family's tastes and an Ikea that is an hour away!
Enjoy!!
Crockpot Swedish Meatballs
1 bag of frozen, pre-cooked meatballs (or use your favorite recipe!)
1 can french onion soup
1 can cream of celery soup
1 8 oz container of sour cream
1 small can of sliced mushrooms, drained
1 tsp minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
Place frozen meatballs in your crockpot and then in another bowl mix the rest of your ingredients together. Pour on top of meatballs, cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-6. Serve with egg noodles or mashed potatoes. Delish!!
Here's all your ingedients...minus the mushrooms and the garlic!
Just place everything in your crockpot on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 and you'll end up with something nummy and crazy good like this:
Oh, so good with egg noodles...
or try it with mashed potatoes...
or baby red potatoes sauteed in olive oil and salt and pepper :)
No matter what you serve it with it'll be gone in a flash!
The perfect dinner for a crisp fall night!
Happy Weekend!!

Yum. Definitely will try these. BTW-if you're interested, I have posted 100 posts (the crowd goes wild...) and am having a giveaway! Thanks for being an awesome blogger (mom, cook, crafter, etc). LOVING your blog.
I will be making this ASAP! Delish!
Yum! What a cozy fall meal! My mom makes something similar and just mixes a few different types of canned brown gravy (because individually she thinks they're gross, but together they're ok?) and voila! Dinner!
Looks very yummy! I will be trying this soon!
Yum! I will definitely be trying this. Thanks for the recipe!
PS Does your ikea have a play area for kids?
PPS how do you pronounce "lignonberry"?
Making this today - thank you! :-)
I made these today and they. are. AWESOME!!! I must admit I was skeptical; I hate celery and couldn't imagine how the cream of celery would taste but these are really good. And they taste exactly like Ikea's. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
Do you add the cans of water along w/the soups?
Do you add the water as well with the soups? chelle005@gmail.com
I have made this a few times, and it's always a HUGE hit! We love it in our house. We don't add water with the soups! It is sooo good, we serve it with egg noodles. I would reccomend this to anyone! =)
This is a delicious recipe! I must have a crock pot that runs high as far as temperature, though, because it only takes mine about 3 - 4 hours on low.
