I actually went with Swedish Meatballs - a good solid choice. I believe that they can be improved in only one way - extra gravy. Meat balls are often too dry in the center, and gravy - no matter matter how much butter was used - is a perfect solution to the dryness. Had there been some extra gravy the meatballs would've been perfect. Ok, they could've been slightly less dense too - I mean, eating too much meat only gives you cancer. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7959128.stm
The potatoes were fine - just too big of pieces, too large of a serving, and way too much Dill. WAY too much. The lingonberries were good - but a bit sour against the gravy's flavor. I got a little bit of the beets...quickly regretted that. Beets never taste good - but the thick sauce looked like the huckleberry sauce from my mothers and grandmothers non-bake Huckleberry Cheese Cake...how deceptive, I should've known that it wouldn't be sweet and full of the flavorful fruit.
