SWEEDISH MEATBALLS

During my first year of marriage, I was still in the "try to impress with my cooking skills" frame of mind. I had a new husband to cook for and a child who was being introduced to the new world of home cooked meals. So one day I came across this yummy recipe for Sweedish Meatballs in the crock pot. I came home during my lunch break and made the meatballs. I browned them in a frying pan and put them in the crockpot with everything else and turned it on. The plan WAS that by the time I got home, they would be done and the house would have this wonderful mouthwatering aroma. Didn't quite go that way. Scott came home early and yes, there was an aroma filling the kitchen that was tantalizing. Enough so that he picked up the lid to the crockpot to find out what it was. That's when he called me at work a little worried at what I was planning on feeding him for dinner. I got home from work only to find that the meatballs did not hold their form and it was a big crockpot of....MUSH! But good smelling mush. I had used the extra lean hamburger wich did NOT hold together well once I shaped them into meatballs. So, my dear sweet husband gave the entire pot to the garbage disposal Gods and we went out to dinner.
I have SINCE found an easier way to make Sweedish Meatballs. But Scott still cringes at the mere mention of them. He will eat my easier version but never lets me forget my first attempt at homemade meatballs. I have gotten better at making meatballs, but won't make them that way again!
So, for anyone who would like to impress your family with an easy version of Sweedish Meatballs that is NOT in a crockpot, here's my wonderful recipe. My husband eats this one and cleans his plate everytime!

1 large can Cream of Mushroom soup
1 12 oz. can Evaporated Milk
1 Pkg. frozen sweedish meatballs
1 pkg. medium egg noodles
1/2 tsp. (or less) nutmeg
pepper

Place frozen meatballs, soup and milk in a large skillet and place on Med. heat. Sprinkle in your seasonings and cover with a lid and simmer for about 15-20 min. stirring frequently. Cook your noodles according to the package directions. To serve, pour meatballs and soup over noodles and enjoy!
