Italian Style Meatballs that are quick and easy to make! You can use ground beef from the market or check out my video and instructions for grinding your own beef! I’ve been making these meatballs for as long as I can remember, but this is the first time I’ve written the recipe down, making them official! I usually use all beef in my meatballs, but occasionally I will add some pork. Feel free to use whatever meat combo you like to use.
I really like to use buttermilk in my meatballs as it has more flavor than regular milk and it helps to tenderize the meatballs. I like to chop the onion, garlic and parsley very fine, my daughters are not big fans of chunks of onions in their meatballs. Sometimes, I use my chopper to almost puree the onions, parsley and garlic, so the meatballs get all the flavor and moisture from the aromatics, but no one can detect any chunks!
Cauliflower Pizza Crust: 12 Tips and Step-by-Step Photo Tutorial
Cauliflower is everywhere now! In our house it’s one of those vegetables that, surprising to me, everyone likes, so I’m always game for a new way to make it! We already love roasted cauliflower, cauliflower rice, mashed cauliflower and Roasted Cauliflower & Cheddar Soup…so I was excited to make my first Cauliflower Pizza Crust!
I read a lot of cauliflower pizza crust recipes, each had varied methods and ingredients. I made my version using what made sense to me and tweaked it with each new batch. My recipe uses only 4 ingredients, it’s made mainly from cauliflower, 2 heads-worth to make 2, 9”-10” crusts.

Beef Stew with Red Wine and Rosemary
Beef stew seems like an easy enough dish to “get right”, but it took me years to figure out how to make a truly flavorful and tender beef stew that my whole family loves! Bacon, red wine and fresh herbs help develop a rich beefy flavor. I braise the stew in the oven for tenderness and deep caramelization. Make sure to read my 12 Tips for Great Beef Stew!

Pistachio Bundt Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze
This moist delicious bundt cake is easy and always a crowd pleaser! It’s a quick cake to mix together as it starts with a white cake mix and pistachio instant pudding – then you mix in eggs, oil and sour cream, which makes it tender and moist. The center of the cake has a ribbon of cinnamon sugar. This cake is perfect for any occasion, but with that ribbon of cinnamon in the center, I love a slice with a cup of coffee for breakfast!
Tropical Green Smoothie
This is my favorite green smoothie! I like to make it at least twice a week. It’s a great way to get lots of greens, fruits and fiber into your diet. I often pour it into a to-go cup and take it on the run. I use lacinato kale which is also known as dinosaur/dino kale, Tuscan kale and black kale.
