What's going on the dinner table tonight? Do tell! I am making a recipe that I had planned to make last week but never got around to it: Sesame-spiced turkey meatballs with smashed chickpea salad. I am serving it with jasmine rice and steamed baby spinach. I've made the meatballs and chickpea salad before and they are really good, especially the chick peas. The recipes come from my Smitten Kitchen cookbook but I also found them online so I'll post the link at the bottom of this post if anyone is interested in seeing them. That's what's happening here tonight. What's everyone else having? I want to know!
Every home cook needs a few meatball recipes in their arsenal. While I love traditional turkey meatballs with red sauce, Smitten Kitchen's mediterranean version has taken over the top spot. These nuggets of turkey are combined with sesame seed and spices t

I couldn't do that. I'd have to freeze some of it for the future. I can't have the same thing too many days in a row.

It's already eight in the morning over here. I bought some dinner from 7/11 and another in some food kiosk.

We are having pizza tonight because no one wanted to actually cook. Last night we had ribs, broccoli cheddar rice, peas, baked beans, pierogies. My first time having pierogies and I loved them.

I've never had pierogies. They sound pretty good.

@NJChicaa They are. The ones we had were mash potatoes and cheese wrapped in dough. My dad sauteed them. They come with many different things inside of them or you can make them with whatever you want inside of them.
