GRANDMA EDIE'S REALLY EASY SWEDISH MEATBALLS IN THE CROCKPOT

Grandma Edie's Really Easy Swedish Meatballs in the Crockpot image

Scott's Grandma, Edith, prepared this recipe for us when we were first married over 30 years ago. I ranted and raved about how delicious until I think I embarrassed her because the recipe is so simple! She was 1/2 Danish and 1/2 Norwegian, and I thought it was likely a terribly complicated recipe using unique ingredients. How wrong! Thanks Grandma Edie (sending this note to you in heaven) - we think of you often!

Time 5h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans cream of celery soup (low sodium preferred)
2 beef bouillon cubes
2 tablespoons instant ground coffee
1/2 cup milk
1 lb frozen italian style meatballs (or use your own homemade)

Steps:

In crockpot, stir together first four ingredients (use a crockpot liner for really easy clean up!). Add meatballs and stir. Cook on low for 4-5 hours until heated through. Add salt and pepper for taste, if desired, but watch the salt -- if not using low sodium soup, can quickly become too salty for my taste.
This recipe makes quite a bit of good gravy to serve over hot noodles or potatoes. Yum!
