Dianas Notes from the City

Dinner with a chance of meatballs

Hope everyone had a nice Easter/Passover weekend. I actually celebrate both since I’m Catholic and my boyfriend is Jewish so it was a very busy weekend for me! On top of two celebrations I also had to play catch up on work and new post coming up so stay tuned… This week I want to teach you another easy/cheap meal because I love to cook easy and cheap for those days you really don’t feel like cooking or you don’t want to spend so much. So, I will show you how to make meatballs without the pasta lol. I’m not a big fan of pasta so I try to stay away from it but feel free to change my recipe up and include pasta if you wish. You can also try ground lamb instead of beef. I know I did meatballs with lamb once and they were the best meatballs I ever had!
