Recipe : Ikea Meatballs

20/04/2020 by Emma

Make Ikea meatballs at home

The list of companies releasing make at home recipes has grown today with the recipe for Ikea meatballs being released. Joining McDonald’s who revealed their McMuffin recipe and Greggs publishing how to make their bakes at home. Now you can make Ikea meatballs at home (maybe dig out a few packets of candles to create that authentic Ikea experience)

The recipe card is even styled like the instructions for a piece of their flat pack furniture 😂
