Beef Stroganoff Meatballs
Beef stroganoff is one of those staple recipes in our household. It’s a Russian dish by origin and has become a popular dish all over the world. It’s definitely one of those comfort foods I know a lot of families have in their dinner rotation. The version we have all come to know and love include mushrooms, onions, and finishing the sauce with sour cream. It’s one of those dishes that can be served over egg noodles, rice, or even mashed potatoes.
This particular recipe includes stuffing the meatballs with swiss cheese. I think that mushroom and swiss is such a classic combination and I love stuffed meatballs. The addition of the swiss cheese in this recipe gives this classic recipe a little twist. It’s a nice surprise to find a little bust of swiss cheese inside. The nutty flavor of the swiss cheese really pairs well with the stroganoff sauce.

Shepherds Pie Meatballs
Talk about another comforting meal – Shepherds Pie is definitely one of the most comforting foods on the list. You can’t beat mashed potatoes and gravy – and this recipe provides a little twist on the classic in meatball form. To recreate this classic in bite sized bits I stuff my meatballs with mashed potatoes and cover them with a quick homemade gravy filled with the traditional vegetables that are in this dish.
You can always substitute the quick homemade gravy with your favorite store bought variety to save some time. The same goes for the homemade mashed potatoes that I make for this meatball. The good news is that this recipe packs three recipes into one!

Chicken Paprikash Meatballs
I think since it’s cold in Minnesota I’ve been working on all the amazing dishes that warm you up on a snowy day. I started making Paprikash years ago. I love trying new things and look for recipes that use different ingredients that I’m interested in working with and are things that I know my husband will eat and like. This traditional Hungarian dish is easy to throw together and you can serve it so many ways including over egg noodles or mashed potatoes.
I like this recipe because it’s a simple chicken meatball that doesn’t take too much time to throw together or to cook in the oven. I like making meatballs in the oven because it’s an easy cleanup and it gives you time to get the sauce put together and cook the noodles.

Beef Meatballs in a Whisky Sauce
This one seems like a staple at potlucks or game day parities. The best thing about this recipe is that it uses my Basic Beef Meatball recipe which doesn’t require a bunch of ingredients and most of them are pantry staples. Another great thing about this recipe is that these meatballs are great for travel. Throw these meatballs in a crockpot and you’re ready to head over to your friend or family’s house.
This is a quick recipe to throw together whether you are short on time or you received a last minute invite to a gathering. While the meatballs are cooking you can throw this sauce together on the stove and let it simmer until you’re ready to toss the meatballs in.
These meatballs make great appetizers that you can serve right out of crockpot and let folks load up their plates. You can also make these meatballs and turn them into meatball subs or sliders to have a more substantial meal.

Firecracker Pork Meatballs
I’m a sucker for spicy food and this one was a recipe that I’ve been working on for a bit. I was turned onto Firecracker type recipes after finding some recipes on Pinterest and I thought that it would make a perfect meatball. I know I’ve mentioned in other posts about how much I love buffalo sauce and buffalo chicken anything and that was a part of the inspiration for this meatball. For this recipe I think pork is a better ground meat choice because I think it holds up to the sweet buffalo sauce better than chicken.
This one falls under the easy to make meatballs and the meatballs that travel well. It’s a great meatball to serve while playing cards or dominos with your friends straight out of a crockpot or you can make a meal out of these spicy little pork balls by serving them over rice. They use my Basic Pork Meatball recipe that is a simple meatball base to throw together and the sweet and spicy sauce is a quick and simple sauce to make while your meatballs are in the oven.
