We love meatballs! Whether they’re traditional Italian meatballs, albondigas in a delicious Mexican soup, or these fantastic Swedish Meatballs in a creamy gravy sauce. Eat your heart out IKEA! This dish is perfect to keep you warm during the holidays. The epitome of comfort food. Like a big warm hug of yum!
So, grab a comfy pair of sweatpants, finish up your Christmas shopping online and reward yourself for your hard work up a big bowl of Swedish Meatballs.
Gather your ingredients.
Mix the beef, breadcrumbs, onions, egg, salt and pepper together in a large bowl until evenly combined.
Roll into 1 1/2″ balls. Heat some canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and cook the meatballs for 1 minute on each side.
Add in broth…
…milk, salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce to the pot. Bring to a boil.
You can add in homemade noodles using our fresh pasta recipe and cut into strips, or you can pick up a package of egg noodles at the store. You just need 4 cups.
Add the noodles into the pot.
Stir constantly until the noodles are cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 8 minutes.
Add the parmesan and parsley. Stir until cheese has melted.
Sprinkle with a little more parmesan and serve!
Have a wonderful weekend!

I’m bringing this dish over to my friends at our weekly Fiesta Friday Party co-hosted by Caroline @ Caroline’s Cooking and Tânia @ Iwanttobeacook.
I love everything from cake to kale. Life is all about balance. I like to live, laugh and love to the fullest! Our time is too short not to enjoy ourselves.
Sarah, this recipe sounds scrumptious. Thanks for sharing at Fiesta Friday!
Thank you!
Oh Yum!!! Happy Holidays.
Thank you 🙂
This looks fabulous. I love the meatball and fresh pasta combination!
Thanks so much!
Always a favorite with everyone I know; these sound marvelous and that sauce must be silky and amazing.

Thank you so much! It’s delish 🙂
If I’m not making my own noodles for this, do I have to use fresh egg noodles or can I use dried ones? If I use dried noodles, how would that change the recipe?
You can easily use dried egg noodles. You will just need 4 cups of egg noodles, fresh or dried. Enjoy!
