Sunday, November 11, 2018

Another classic from my childhood. These are essentially Swedish meatballs, made of turkey. It's an easy recipe, and it's fantastically delicious!

Recipe

For the meatballs:

• 1 pound ground turkey (makes ~15 meatballs)
  
• 1/3 cup unflavored bread crumbs (if meatball mixture is to wet, can add up to another 1/3 cup crumbs)
  
• 1 egg
  
• Salt and pepper to taste (usually means 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper,)
  
• 1/4 cp diced onion
  
• 2 cloves minced garlic (if you have it...)
  
• If the meatball mix is dry, slowly add up to 1/3 cp milk

Now, make a bunch of meatballs about 1 1/2 inch in diameter. Brown them in oil. Add them to this sauce :

For the sauce:

• 1 can cream of chicken soup
  
• 1 can milk
  
• 1/2 green pepper finely diced
  
• 1 tsp curry powder (You can skip the curry, or only add 1/4 tsp for less curry taste)

Cook on stove top for about 30 minutes. Serve over egg noodles or rice.
