recipe Dinner Recipe: Swedish Meatballs
Servings: 6
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step Detailed Instructions

Mom fixed this Swedish meatball recipe for all sorts of family dinners, potluck suppers and PTA meetings. The scent of browning meat is intoxicating. Add to that the sweet smell of onions caramelizing, and everyone’s mouth starts watering.
Recipe by: Marybeth Mank ~ Mesquite, Texas


    Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1/3 cup minced fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 pounds ground beef

  • GRAVY:
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2-3/4 cups 2% milk
  • 2 cans (10-1/2 ounces each) condensed beef consomme, undiluted
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: 1/4 teaspoon each ground allspice and ground nutmeg

  • NOODLES:
  • 1 package (16 ounces) egg noodles
  • 1/4 cup butter, cubed
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients. Add beef; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into 1-1/2-in. meatballs (about 36). In a large skillet over medium heat, brown meatballs in batches. Using a slotted spoon, remove to paper towels to drain, reserving drippings in pan.
  • For gravy, stir flour into drippings; cook over medium-high heat until light brown (do not burn). Gradually whisk in milk until smooth. Stir in consomme, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, salt and allspice and nutmeg if desired. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low; return meatballs to pan. Cook, uncovered, until meatballs are cooked through, 15-20 minutes longer, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain; toss with butter. Serve with meatball mixture; sprinkle with parsley.


recipe Dessert Recipe: Grandma's Pecan Rum Bars
Servings: 2 Doz.
Taste of Home ~ Step by Step Detailed Instructions

My grandmother handed down the recipe for these gooey bars that we all love. The candied cherries are a must.
Recipe by: Deborah Pennington ~ Falkville, Alabama



    Ingredients:
  • 4 cups chopped pecans, divided
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2-1/4 cups red candied cherries
  • 1-1/2 cups chopped candied pineapple
  • 1/2 cup chopped candied citron
  • 1/3 cup rum

  • Preparation Instructions:
  • Sprinkle 3 cups pecans over a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan; set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Gradually add flour to creamed mixture, beating well.
  • Spread batter into prepared pan. Combine candied fruit and the remaining pecans. Spread fruit and pecans evenly over creamed mixture; press gently to help mixtures adhere. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Sprinkle rum over the top; cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Store in an airtight container.
