Creamy Swedish Meatballs in Savory Mushroom Sauce

Swedish Meatballs Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 4 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 8 slices white bread, torn into small pieces
• 2 pounds ground beef
• 1 onion, finely chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 4 tablespoons shortening
• 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup
• 1 can cream of chicken soup
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and milk together.
2. Add the torn bread pieces to the bowl, mix gently, and let it stand for 5 minutes to absorb the liquid.
3. Add the ground beef, chopped onion, baking powder, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Mix everything together thoroughly; the mixture will be soft. Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs.
4. In a large skillet, heat the shortening over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs in batches, a few at a time, until they are evenly browned on all sides. Transfer the browned meatballs to an ungreased 3-quart baking dish.
5. In a separate bowl, stir together the evaporated milk, cream of mushroom soup, and cream of chicken soup until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the meatballs in the baking dish.
6. Bake the meatballs, uncovered, at 350°F (175°C) for 1 hour, or until the meatballs are cooked through and the sauce is bubbling and slightly thickened.
7. Remove the Swedish meatballs from the oven and sprinkle them with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
