How people cook with it
These meatballs are a convenient way to prepare classic dishes quickly. They can be added to sauces or baked directly into casseroles.

- Used in Swedish meatballs
To heat, place the frozen meatballs in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through. Alternatively, they can be added directly to simmering sauces, soups, or stews and cooked until hot. For a quick stovetop method, heat them in a skillet over medium heat with a small amount of oil, stirring occasionally, until browned and heated through. Ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to homemade meatballs, these offer significant time savings as they are pre-cooked and seasoned. Their uniform size ensures consistent cooking. They may have a slightly different texture and flavor profile due to the cooking process and added seasonings.
How to keep the rest
Keep the remaining frozen meatballs in their original packaging in the freezer. For best quality, use within the recommended timeframe on the packaging. Ensure the package is sealed tightly to prevent freezer burn and maintain freshness.
