Meatball Beef & Broccoli
Meatball Beef & Broccoli. When I decided to share a different meatball recipe for the month of March I needed to enlist my loved ones for some recipe inspiration. For Nick, we would transform his favorite Beef & Broccoli in a meatball meal. The results were out of this world!

Chili Crisp Oil
Shelby and I sat at the dining room table (in her new home) for an entire morning. She peeling garlic, me shucking chili pepper seeds, all the while laughing about whether making homemade Chili Crisp Oil would be worth it in the end.

Chicken Marsala Meatballs for National Meatball Day!
We shall make Chicken Marsala Meatballs. Because TODAY is National Meatball Day! With the way I love meatballs, this food holiday is deserving of a celebration. A Meatball Palooza if you will. I have so many meatball recipes to share (and several I’ve yet to create) that we’ll need days to properly honor those perfectly packaged bundles of love. I shall call this celebration March Meatball Madness and share a meatball recipe every day for the remainder of the month.

Malfatti {Spinach & Ricotta Dumplings}

Herby Polenta {with Smoked Gouda}
I’m not sure whether to categorize Herby Polenta as a side dish or a main dish. I would be entirely happy and comfortable with that big bowl and a spoon. The fresh herb flavors popping through with hints of smoked gouda in every creamy extremely satisfying bite!

Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip
I was torn on whether to call this beautiful bowl of roasted goodness a dip or a spread. Not that it really matters, but considering I dipped my way through its photo shoot, I settled on Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip. Had there been a baguette in the house, this most certainly would have been called a spread. You decide.

Breakfast Sandwich {Egg McMuffin Style}
I love a good Breakfast Sandwich. What better day to enjoy one than today. Happy National Egg McMuffin Day! I will happily admit that I have eaten many a McMuffin hot from the drive-thru line. They were quick & easy and always hit the spot. So whether you’ve got a little extra time to make your own like I did this morning or you’re supporting your favorite local breakfast joint….don’t miss an opportunity to celebrate this beloved breakfast sandwich!!
