I’ve had meatballs on my mind… A friend told me about a nearby restaurant that served their meatballs in a marinara sauce, and she would order that and a big salad to go. We tried it and it was delightful. We had it a few times and it was great. Then I ran across another meatball recipe (I appear to be addicted to recipes) and while reading the complexity of it, I thought back to my simple recipe. Quick and delicious. So I tried them in sauce with a big salad and a little bread to soak up the marinade. Whoa!

We had an extremely hot and humid summer here in Charleston, SC this year (as did much of the country). So after Tropical Storm Lee blew through the area we were left with nicer temps and less humidity. After avoiding the stove/oven for months on end, we’re putting it to good use while we can. Time for this (quick) Green Chicken Chili. It will quickly become a favorite. One night we have baked chicken (and bake extra) and then in the next day or so we make the Green Chicken Chili. Tasty!

A cold, crunchy salad with fresh ingredients bursting with flavor and the delightful twang of the PRO (pickled red onions) – Could there be anything better on a very warm day? The first time I made this it was slim pickins’ with the peach slices as one of the peaches didn’t make it home from the store without turning a horrible color and croaking right in front of my eyes. $3.44 for 2 peaches. #wow This time the peach was perfection!
