Homemade Albondigas Recipe

Albondigas roughly translate into Meatball Soup.

Now I can’t tell you how good this is, you’ll just have to trust me and make it for yourself.  The directions are extra simple, and it’s very easy to make.  It is rather spicy, so it’s a welcome treat during the winter months.  You can make this tasty treat as spicy as you like, or as mild as you prefer.  This soup is user-friendly, and adapts well to any taste preference.

 

Balsamic Steak Marinade

As promised, this week is about continuing those great memories through the close of summer.  Now my hubby loves marinades, so I’m guessing that other people do too.

Here’s a great marinade.  And honestly!  It just doesn’t get any easier than this one right here.

 

Three Cheese Italian Style Chicken Rigatoni

Well it’s that time of year again.  School is gearing up for most of the kids, and summer is coming to an end.  But there’s no need to put away the grill just yet!  There’s still plenty of warm weather, and plenty of family gatherings to share before summer comes to a close.

Here’s is a great recipe that has been around the table at our house a couple thousand times.  I’d like to share it with you, in the spirit of keeping those summer memories coming on strong.

 

Mexican Lasagna

Here’s another quick and easy recipe, that I think would be great to get the kids in the kitchen.  If you thought the kids did great at making their own pizzas……… give this one a try!

I must say, I’ve had some real doozies of mistakes in the kitchen.  However, I’ve been able to pull it all together and make it look like I meant it to turn out that way. 😛  shh – that’s our secret.

 

Pico De Gallo Recipe

There is nothing more satisfying this time of year than having a garden grow.  By your own two hands, you’ve worked the land, nurtured and cared for it.  Now, the garden is growing lavishly, and giving back of all it’s received.

However, I can think of one thing that could, quite possibly, be more rewarding than this.  Walking out to the garden with a basket! (of course being thankful for the bounty you are about to receive).  And moreover, being thankful for recipes like this, that allow you to implement those, oh so wonderful, home-grown delectable.

 

Pizza Pie

When you think pizza, you think of a circular flat bread plate topped with a smattering of choices.  Of which include a tomato sauce base and one of many varieties of cheese.  Or if you’re like me, more than one cheese please!

In our continued effort to bring you the coolest, easiest and possibly some of the best recipes around, we’ve found a couple more that we’d like to share.  I will list them both on this post.  Mangiere Bene Il Mio Amico! (Eat well my friend! :D)

Trivia Tuesday, question of the week…  Everybody ready?
What took hours to make, was made of iron, dipped in tinplate, then soldered closed?

Did you guess the TIN CAN?  Ok, did you really know o.O  … Or did I give it away with the picture.

Well in my quest for the history on the coolest inventions ever made that have changed our lives forever, I came across this great information.  It intrigued me so much, that I’ll be doing a piece on… (Can you guess? :P)….
