Grandma's Swedish Meatballs image

When I was growing up my mother's side of the family would get together every Christmas Eve at my Swedish Grandmother house in NJ. My Grandma is long gone now, but whenever I make these it brings me right back to my childhood.

These meatballs were a little dry, but the sauce was very flavorful. I would make them again, but I would add some more moisture to the meatballs.
