Just another reason to bake some meatballs...

I didn't need to be talked into it... but I did need to make some more meatballs! For more info on the full story, click here: Baked Meatballs.

Tonight we enjoyed spaghetti and meatballs...

And when I do spaghetti sauce I usually start it off with some sauteed veggies (crimini mushrooms, onion and garlic)... and then pour in a high quality tomato sauce! (I don't make EVERYTHING from scratch ... not yet!) The sauce usually sits on the stove top for about 30 minutes while I'm doing other things.

Once the meatballs have finished baking then I drop them in the sauce... and let them simmer a bit longer.




Tonight my hero-of-a-hubby paused the television (gasp)... and said "Honey, thank you for making a great dinner tonight. Thank you!" Then he hit the "play" button again ...

And that's all there is to tonight's story...



enjoy your time in the kitchen...
