November is Mini Meatball Month!!!

November 1, 2009


This is the very very very first item I made in bulk to freeze. I used this recipe for mini Italian meatballs and made 14 dozen in one day.

My first daughter had just been born early and was staying in the NICU. I was going crazy with worry. We were only permitted to see her for 1 hour each day and I finally decided to fill my freezer with food for when she was able to come home. This was more for my sanity than anything else. A way to fill up my days while she was away.

Check in tomorrow for the recipe and then get ready, because all month long I will be sharing MANY recipes for using your fabulous frozen meatballs.
Autumn is the perfect season to cozy up with something hearty and warm. And it couldn't be easier!!!

I'm excited for an Italian meat ball recipe. Like you, meatballs were the first thing I froze in bulk too. They are a great add in for soups, pasta and rice dishes. I'm excited to get even more ideas.
BTW I just found your blog last week and already LOVE IT!!
