Making Easy Vegan Swedish Meatballs at Home 

We love the Ikea Vegan Meatballs but we now live on the other side of the country to Ikea so we had to replicate this tasty dish at home, yes you can make your meatballs but with the tasty, ready-made version in Lidl, and from Green Cusine why would you on a busy night?

The tasty part of this is the sauce on the meatballs and serving it with a Tasty Mash and Green Vegetables of your choice.

If you can't get Lingonberry from Ikea you can serve it with Cranberry sauce which will  work
