🍽️ This Crock Pot Swedish Meatballs recipe offers a hands-off, slow-cooked meal perfect for busy days while delivering rich, creamy flavors.
πŸ₯„ The creamy sauce and tender meatballs make it a comforting dish that’s ideal for family dinners or special occasions.

  • Total Time: 6 to 8 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

– 10.75-ounce can of cream of mushroom soup (low sodium recommended)

– 14-ounce can of beef broth (low sodium recommended)

– one packet of dry onion soup mix

– 2 tablespoons of steak sauce (can be substituted or omitted)

– 2 pounds of frozen homestyle meatballs (avoiding Italian varieties)

– 1 cup of sour cream (can be substituted or omitted)

– 12-ounce package of egg noodles (optional, for serving)

Instructions

1-Getting started: Begin by whisking together the cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, dry onion soup mix, and steak sauce in a 5-6 quart slow cooker until smooth. This creates the base for a creamy sauce that ties everything together.

2-Next, add the 2 pounds of frozen homestyle meatballs and stir gently to coat them evenly. Cover the slow cooker and let it work its magic on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-5 hours, allowing the flavors to blend perfectly. If you’re serving with egg noodles, boil a 12-ounce package according to the package directions just before the meatballs are done.

3-Once cooking is complete, stir in the 1 cup of sour cream to make the sauce extra creamy, then serve the meatballs and sauce over or mixed with the noodles. This method ensures tender meatballs every time, and it’s a great way to adapt for different meals, like serving over mashed potatoes for a twist.
