We are starting to settle into winter weather here. The first snow has passed and we are starting to get the 20-25 degree nights. I love Italian food on a cold, dark night. Add a glass of wine and it seems luxurious and comforting. This weather has us looking ahead though. Last week we made…

Christmas Cookies: Chocolate Meatballs
reblog from 2016 This is a cookie from my childhood. I remember going to my grandmother’s house every Christmas Eve when we were young children. It was always the highlight of the year for me. I knew that the house would be filled with all the wonderful smells and foods that I loved. This was…
German Meatballs with Spaetzle
This dish was steaming HOT when I took the picture so it looks a bit hazy. My daughter came out of her room just before we were serving dinner and said, “It smells amazing in here!” It did. The apple cider vinegar and bacon combined with the sour cream and meatballs? Heavenly. My kids are…
Slow Cooker Sweet and Sour Meatballs with Rice
This is a remake version of a recipe I used to make years ago. I lost the recipe about 10 years ago and forgot all about it. The other day we started talking about different dishes I haven’t made in a long time and this was mentioned so I decided to try to recreate it….
Meatball Dumplings
My son called these meatball dumplings. He thought they reminded him of the dumplings we get from the local Chinese restaurant except they were Italian. The best part of the meal for me was both of my children and I were sitting at the kitchen table making dinner. My son was rolling the meatballs, I…
Meatball Subs
I am in a comfort food mode if you can’t see it by looking at my last few posts. I seek out the creamy, savory, flavorful meals I remember from being a kid or that make me feel warm and good inside. I know food can’t solve everything but right now, it is okay. Sometimes…

Meatball Mozzarella Bites
This time of year having a few easy appetizer recipes in the back of your mind can be a good thing. Whether it is a house full of teenagers, someone dropping by near dinner time unexpectedly or those last-minute party invitations having the makings for easy appetizers is always a good idea. These are hearty…
Slow Cooker Cocktail Meatballs
So, on New Year’s Day we don’t eat a traditional meal. We snack all day long. I searched through Pinterest for easy and different appetizers for my family to try. I remember trying this dish about 20 years ago at a party and liking it but when I went to make it I thought it…
Salisbury Steak Meatballs
So we have returned from the last of our summer vacations. It was a whirlwind tour back to New York to visit friends and family. We returned home last night about 10 pm from: in 86 hours we drove almost 2,000 miles in 24 hours of driving time; slept in three different places; ate at…
Pesto Meatball Sandwiches
We spent the weekend in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for two Feises. Milwaukee has become our go to city, even more than Chicago. It is a three and a half hour drive, more with all the construction, but we still love it and are having a great time exploring different areas each time we go. We discovered…
Saucy Asian Meatballs
Lots of ground beef to use right now so I am trying to make different things so the kids don’t realize the meat is the same thing every night. This recipe for Saucy Asian Meatballs is from Bear With Me at Chef Jenny.com. I must confess that I followed the recipe just as it…
