So you’re probably asking yourself – who is Omi and are her Swedish Meatballs as good as Ikea’s? Let me tell you… <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"Omi's<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Well, Omi is my mom’s mom!! She’s responsible for MANY of our favorite recipes here on WGC and in my cookbooks and YES THESE SWEDISH MEATBALLS ARE ABSOLUTELY as good as Ikea’s, if not better! Thank you very much and apologies for yelling! They just bring back mega memories of childhood and I’m very excited! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know those fried potatoes in book 3<\/a> – those are hers!! And that green bean salad in book 2 <\/a>– Omi gets full credit!! Her recipes are packed with flavor but simple and not complicated! The woman had 3 kids to feed back when they were all living at home, she needed max flavor without crazy long prep times. So today, you’re getting her version of Swedish Meatballs! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anya (my sister) and I used to BEG her to make these every time she would come visit or we’d go visit her! They are hands down one of my top 10 favorite recipes from childhood and you guys will be obsessed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most Swedish Meatballs are a combo of ground beef and ground pork. I know that many of you don’t eat pork or just never have it on hand, so you’ll notice the recipe below only calls for ground beef. But if you’re into the pork, DO IT! Just do a 50\/50 split of ground beef to ground pork and you’ll get even more flavor! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the creamy gravy sauce – omg. It’s so simple and perfect. Starts with a little roux and gets finished with some heavy cream (whole fat milk would work too) and beef broth. It’s creamy and delicious and PERFECT for dunking the meatballs in to make them extra flavorful. Swedish Meatballs coming in hot!! Enjoy! <\/p>\n\n\n
