  • “I did my own modifications. I used frozen meatballs to start. I used two cans of cream of mushroom soup and doubled the milk. (we like sauce!!) In addition to the written ingredients I added two cubes of beef bullion, a sprinkle of allspice and white pepper, and a couple splashes of worcheshire sauce. I served it over egg noodles. This was excellent and sooo easy. My kids and hubby loved it!”

  • “I attempted this recipe today. I didnt follow the recipe exactly. I used one can of chicken soup and one can of mushroom soup. Meatballs turned out really good atop of angel hair pasta. This recipe was a winner for me!”

  • “This was fabulous….even if I added the sour cream too early and use precooked frozen meatballs. I did not realize recipe said to add it after simmering the meatballs, soup, milk and nutmeg. Oh well! Thanks for sharing Dreamgoddess!!”

  • “Great comfort food!I used the Basic Meatball recipe.Ended up leaving out the nutmeg.I loved the sauce – will double that next time!Served over leftover pasta with fresh steamed broccoli.”

  • “I too used cream of mushroom soup, but otherwise followed the recipe as written using recipe 8060 for the meatballs.”

  • “This doesn’t taste like a cream sauce so much as it tastes like condensed cream soup… which I like but my husband would NOT eat.To disguise the flavor and save dinner I made a quick roux and whisked it in, adding milk to thin and seasonings to taste.We won’t be using this in our house, but for those that love the comfort and taste of cream soups this would likely be a winner.”

  • “i used crm of mush soup cuz it was all i had on hand….i actually preferred it before the sour crm was added, it was good though. just didn’t want to rate it cuz i changed the recipe…..”

  • “This was so easy and it tasted great! I used meatball recipe #111276. I will be making this again thanks!”

  • “I followed this recipe to the letter. I was very disappointed.It was very bland — no flavor whatsoever.”

  • “Very tasty! Reminded me of stroganoff.Easy to make.I used cream of mushroom soup instead of cream of chicken just because I didn’t have any on hand.It was good!”

  • “I had some leftover homemade meatballs, and was looking for a way to use them up. I am happy to say that your recipe was just the way to do so! Quick, easy, and tasty…thanks for sharing!”

  • “I had some home-made meatballs in the freezer and not a lot of time to prepare dinner, so this was perfect.I followed the recipe exactly except I grated fresh nutmeg right into the sauce.My DH LOVED it!It is so fast, easy and delicious that I have to give this a full 5 star review!Thanks Dreamgoddess for posting this new favorite.”

  • ” I used10 balls from recipe#127437 Swedish Meatballs by Bec – I had them in the freezer then added 1/2 tin of soup, fried some mushrooms while I was browning the balls asses a pinch of chili flakes andalthough I would have loved the sour cream I omitted it Still super good and easy Thanks Dreamgoddess for adopting this recipe!”

  • “MMM! I made this last night using frozen swedish style meatballs. I added a bit more nutmeg after tasting the recipe unaltered. This was so simple yet very tasty. Served over rice. Will do again:)”

  • “This recipe just looked too quick and easy not to try.I used recipe #111276 Easy Basic Meatballs.I used 98% fat free cream of mushroom soup, 2% milk and “lite” sour cream.The sauce was creamy and smooth and very tasty.I served mine over egg noodles.My DH loved this recipe and asked for me to make it again soon.They can say what they want to about condensed cream soups.I keep a supply of several different ones in my pantry and the lower fat variety is just as good tasting as the regular.This is definitely an easy delicious meal!”

  • “This was very simple and great comfort food.I used my own meatball recipe and when I went to make this I thought I had cream of mushroom but it was actually cream of celery.Very tasty and filling, good for our cold, snowy night.”

  • “Wow! This was really good and so easy. I had meatballs in my freezer and used those instead of the meatballs suggested in the recipe. I used approximately 2 dozen appetizer sized meatballs and the amount of sauce was perfect. I served this yummy dish over egg noodles. This meal was so easy to put together and was really delicious. My husband, especially, loved it and he doesn’t know that he likes sour cream 🙂 Perfect recipe, just as it is! Thanks!”

  • “I made these with another meatball recipe because I had lot’s of company, and I wanted to freeze some too. This has a scrumptious sauce. I used fat free sour cream and fat free chicken soup and it was Nummy !!”
