Our older son has always been the more active one with extra-curricular activities. It makes sense because he is three years ahead of our daughter. As the younger one, she was a little behind finding out what she was really interested in. But, now I look up and she is SO busy! Our weeks are filled with her gymnastics, dance classes, and basketball league. She is actually more busy than her brother.
Of course, this makes for some pretty crazy weeknights. Like all moms, I’m constantly struggling to find a wholesome meal that I can fix them as they are heading out the door for their obligations. This is why I love comfort food so much. More often than not, you can make these recipes with just a handful of ingredients and very little effort!
In our home, we love our Crock Pot. It just makes everything so easy. So, I decided to post this easy Swedish Meatballs Crock Pot Recipe.
Swedish Meatballs
We live right down the street from an IKEA. We don’t go there nearly as often as I thought we would! But my husband and I went there the other day decided to eat lunch in their cafeteria. My husband ordered their Swedish Meatballs and there were incredible. That is when I decided it would be fun to make my own version at home.
In an effort to make these work with our busy lives, I decided to put the crock pot into the equation. We love to use our slow cooker on weekday nights. I work from home, so I can just put everything in the Crock Pot earlier in the day and it will all be ready by the time dinner comes around. This Swedish Meatballs Crock Pot Recipe is perfect for that.

Swedish Meatballs Slow Cooker Recipe
This version of Swedish Meatballs has a pretty light sauce. If you wanted to thicken it up a bit you could certainly add some corn starch. But, honestly, it may be better to be a little light on that classic Swedish meatballs sauce. I serve mine with some nice, soft, warm noodles. But mashed potatoes could work too.
The instructions are pretty easy. Just spray the Crock Pot with nonstick cooking spray. Add meatballs.
Sprinkle onions and nutmeg on meatballs. Mix broth and Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl. pour over meatballs and mix. Then, heat on low for 3-4 hours, stirring every hour or so until heated through. In a small bowl, mix half and half and sour cream. Pour over meatballs and mix well. Continue to heat for an additional 10 minutes or until heated through. Then, just serve on some hot noodles!
There will be plenty for a family of 4-6. And the leftovers will taste just as good the next day! Thanks for stopping by to get hooked up with some more awesome comfort food. I hope you enjoy this easy Swedish Meatball Crock Pot Recipe. Let me know what you think!
