Swedish Meatballs
This is a recipe that was my favorite growing up and has now turned into my kids favorite. The recipe is adapted from a Campbells soup cookbook and is absolutely delicious and so easy to make.
I've put off photographing it for years - but with my mom in town and the kids asking for Swedish meatballs (always! Especially when grammy makes them), my mom and I made them together and were finally able to get a few photos.

Do you and your mother use the pickle? My guess is that is part of why they are so special.
