If you don’t feel like booking a flight to Sweden or running to IKEA for Swedish meatballs, there are some frozen brands to keep on hand that can deliver the same tasty quality. When it comes to Swedish meatballs, shoppers stand by a few particular brands. Here are five that they say are worth your money.

Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs Dinner Frozen Meal

Target

Stouffer’s is a go-to for those who depend on frozen meals, and the Stouffer’s Swedish Meatballs Dinner Frozen Meal is just one of many favorites among buyers. “Swedish Meatballs are one of my favorite dishes, and of all the many brands I’ve tried, yours is hands-down the best of them all. First, the noodles, sauce, and mini meatballs all blend together to create a wonderful taste sensation. Second, the portions are substantial and leave me feeling very satisfied after eating it. Finally, the price point is excellent, and I especially liked the promotions you provide when I purchase four or more at a time with a generous coupon discount on my next order. I rarely write reviews, but you hit a home run with this product,” a reviewer said.

Rosina Swedish Meatball

The Rosina Swedish Meatball has great flavor and pairs perfectly with berry jam according to buyers. “Tastes similar to IKEA meatballs. Size and texture are normal and the taste is good. You can taste the herbs. Not as good as in Sweden, but a good substitute if you don’t want to make your own and are far from the big blue box. Great with Canadian berry jam if you don’t have Scandinavian,” a reviewer said.

Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer Swedish Meatballs

Target

The Healthy Choice Cafe Steamer Swedish Meatballs is ready quickly and tasty, according to shoppers. “This meal is a quick and satisfying option that’s ready in minutes in the microwave without sacrificing flavor,” a reviewer said. “We served it as the main protein item for dinner, and it was a delicious and convenient meal that felt both comforting and satisfying. Perfect for busy nights when you want something easy, flavorful, and nourishing.”

Marie Callender’s Savory Swedish Meatballs are a staple for shoppers that enjoy the savory dish. “This is one of my all time favorite frozen meals. Anytime I get this for lunch it’s always so delicious. Although the sodium might be a tad bit high- it’s so good. This actually helps with my pots when I’m craving salt. The meatballs, noodles, and sauce always mix up extremely well and taste so good. I always feel full after eating. It’s something good to have every once in a while,” a reviewer said.

HORMEL COMPLEATS Swedish Meatballs with Pasta in Cream Sauce

Walmart

The HORMEL COMPLEATS Swedish Meatballs with Pasta in Cream Sauce are some of the best out there, according to shoppers. “Although not as tasty as home-made, this brand of frozen meatballs are the best I’ve found. They didn’t fall apart in the crockpot. Tasty, solid, not over-salty tasting,” a reviewer said. “I’ve always loved Swedish meatballs and this is a great option when you need a quick little meal. My kids also love these. The meatballs are tasty and so is the sauce,” another said.
