Last weekend on a trip to Ikea with Iron Chef Katie we needed food before we commenced shopping. Lovely Katie shouted me to some Swedish meatballs. It was the first time for both of us. We had heard such good things about them so we decided it was time to see what all the fuss was about.


We got the smaller serving, about 17 meatballs, with chips and the cranberry sauce/jam. I'm not sure why they serve it with cranberry jam (or lingonberry preserves as suggested by Kelly - thanks!), but it works really well with the gravy and the meatballs.
I thought they were rather nice! So cheap and filling. I would definitely have them again. They might not look like the most exciting things to eat but sometimes you can't judge a book by it's cover.

Anyways, we both had success shopping, I bought a bookshelf which was rather heavy, and Katie got some pretty picture frames. Man I love Ikea!
