I made this for heritage-fest at my daughter's school. There are 19 kids in her class, and with the teacher and parents that were helping that day, I decided to make 32. It was a hit with all the kids! They all but licked the bowl clean! I did not use as much dill, as I made it once before bringing it to school and the dill seemed to overpower the meatballs. Definately worth making.

I'm always looking for recipes that make something ordinary extraordinary, and believe me this is one of them. Ground beef, how ordinary can you get! I made a couple of substitutions because not every ingredient is always available on this tiny tropical island where I live; Curacao. I subsituted cranberry jam for the Lingonberry. I also soaked bread in water (not milk! in my opinion meatballs just taste better this way. I also added some fresh dille to the cream sauce. And I used cream in stead of sour cream. I also used some fresh nutmeg in the seasoning for the meatballs, and lots of freshly ground black pepper. This is the first recipe that I have found online that actually rocked! Made write a review about how good it was!!

I absolutely love any recipe from Tyler! This recipe is sooo easy and tasty. The only thing I couldn't find were the ground Caraway seeds, but I just used my grinder to make the seeds into a powder. If you love Tyler...I mean if you love Swedish Meatballs, this is a recipe your family will enjoy for many years.

Served this to a native Swede, he was impressed and said tasted like "home". I made the meatballs appitizer size using a 1/4 c ice cream scoop and served in a chafing dish. I did add another 1/4 of Lingonberry to the sauce but I was using Lingonberry Sauce instead of jam.

Everytime I make these, there aren't any left!
If you are going to soak the breadcrumbs, make sure you don't let them go any longer than the posted time! I put them in a fine strainer & press the liquid out with the back of a spoon - you can always add a bit of dried back in if you feel it's too wet.
I also make them smaller than the 1/2 cup - I use a tablespoon cookie scoop.
These also freeze very well - reheat gently -
Great job, Tyler!!

This recipe was pretty good and very rich. I wasn't sure if I liked the texture of the meatballs though, it almost seemed kinda dry. I may try this recipe again, but make the meatballs with half beef and half pork.

I made some changes (for the better, I think. Used hamburger and turkey. b/c turkey is so dry and tasteless, added a few tablespoons of olive oil. 3/4 cup Italian breadcrumbs, lots of pepper and dill weed. Meatballs light and delicious. Used plain yogurt instead of sour cream. To the gravy recipe, added 7 oz. jar gravy (with a nod to Sandra Lee. My family loved this.

I bought the lingonberry jam on a trip to Ikea with this recipe in mind. it turned out great. I used panko bread crumbs and they worked well. The sauce was tasty and overall everyone enjoyed the dish.
