TINA'S SWEDISH MEATBALLS
A friend of ours would bring these meatballs to a lot of pot luck get togethers and they always went fast. My husband (who will tell anyone that he hates sour cream) would usually fill his plate with these meatballs and go back for 2nds, 3rds, and if possible even 4ths.

- 3. *you can taste before you add to noodles to adjust seasoning levels to your tastes, or you can add a pack of ranch seasoning mix to the sauce to amp up the flavor and thicken the sauce a little. It stands well on it's own and we like it both ways. ** To use as an appetizer, just make the meatballs smaller and skip the noodles.

CLASSIC SWEDISH MEATBALLS
I'm a "Svenska flicka" (Swedish girl) from northwest Iowa, where many Swedes settled at the turn of the century. This recipe was given to me by a Swedish friend. It's obviously a 20th century version of a 19th century favorite, since back then they didn't have bouillon cubes or evaporated milk! I think you'll agree that these modern-day "Kottbullar" are very tasty. -Emily Gould, Hawarden, Iowa

ALMOST-FAMOUS SWEDISH MEATBALLS
Some people drive for hours to get to an Ikea store, and we know they aren't making the trek just for the $9.99 chairs. They're going for the Swedish meatballs. The dish has been a main attraction at Ikea Restaurants since an in-store chef developed the recipe in Switzerland in 1985. Although Ikea's Real Swedish Food Book, published in 2000, included a meatball recipe, reps confirmed that it is not the one served at their restaurants. Ikea is keeping that baby a secret, so chefs in Food Network Kitchens hit a nearby store for a tasting, then created this spot-on copy.

Pour the milk mixture over the breadcrumbs and stir to make a thick paste; let cool. Add the beef, pork, egg and egg white to the bowl and mix until combined.
