turkey-swedish-meatballs-3My husband loves meatballs. Every week I ask him if there is anything that he’d like for dinner and I would say at least 75% of the time he replies with…”well I can always do meatballs.”

Now, I do like meatballs but I have to change them up a bit so that I don’t get bored. Sometimes we do meatball subs, then there are my Sweet & Sour Meatballs, my Blue Cheese Stuffed Buffalo Chicken Meatballs and even Meatball Stromboli. Today I am sharing another great meatball recipe that is always a huge hit at my house – Turkey Swedish Meatballs.

This recipe is just a basic meatball but with the addition of Allspice you get that distinctive Swedish Meatball taste. I opt to do mine with ground turkey as I think it offers a great texture that goes great with that creamy sauce.

This is also a quick recipe. You can start your rice or potatoes and then start up your meatballs and everything will be done at once.  Steam up some veggies and you have a delicious dinner without a ton of effort.

This meal is part of the Publix Menu Plan For the Week Of 5/8 to 5/14 (5/7 to 5/13 for some). Here are the other recipes I have shared this week:
