"These Authentic Italian Meatballs (Polpette al Sugo) are tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Made with grass-fed beef, Parmigiano cheese, Italian parsley, and onions, they're pan-fried and finished in a rich tomato sauce. Perfectly tender and easy to make, this classic recipe brings the taste of nonna's kitchen to your table!"  Comment from Savoring Italy

This recipe is much like the one I use that I learned from my nana.  I think the only difference is I don't use onion.

Shrimp and Burst Cherry Tomato Pasta

"Two summer favorites in one: tomatoes and shrimp. Whole cherry tomatoes are cooked on the stove top until they gently burst, creating the base for an effortless sauce. A mix of both yellow and red cherry tomatoes adds contrast to this keeper of a dish, especially when the dish is finished with fresh basil. The Parmesan brings the entire dish together, blending with reserved pasta water to create a silky sauce. The key is to buy a block of Parmesan and grate it yourself, as the pre-grated kind can clump and won't melt to create a smooth sauce. Some say cheese and seafood shouldn't mix, but this recipe is a pretty compelling reason for why they go together."  Comment from Southern Living

Fast, easy and delicious . . . that is a winner!

Banana Coconut Cream Dessert

The Betty Crocker recipe page says this dessert is very similar to a Banana Cream Pie.  Looks like it is an easy semi-homemade dessert including Bisquick and instant pudding.  Bisquick is something I always have an extra box of because it makes almost everything you make with it seem like you spent hours on it.

"A corn dog casserole is a homey way to mimic the flavor of that favorite fair food on a stick, without the fuss. The key ingredients are the same: hot dogs and a cornbread batter. Our corn dog casserole recipe includes a few more ingredients and skips the deep frying (and the stick) to create a family-friendly fare for casual mealtimes."  Comment from Taste of Home

It has been years since I had a corn dog and I love them.  If they taste anything like a corn dog, I want one!

The Captain would have loved this Jalapeno Pimento Cheese.  Not me, I'm not into hot stuff that will burn your mouth, but he grew the hottest peppers he could find and would eat them whole.  I love pimento cheese.
