So many people talk about how there is so much cooking and baking involved over the holidays, and while that’s true, you don’t have to stop just because the holidays are over.

I’m WAY late with this review.  Somehow I missed it and it’s probably because I did nothing but cook and bake throughout the holidays but I still wanted to tell you about it because, well, it’s cooking related and I actually made it and people actually liked it.

I’m getting so good at this cooking stuff.  It’s funny.

Well, not really.  Unless I catch things on fire.  That’s funny.  After I have the fire out.

Anywho, one of the things that I made this holiday season was Ultimate Party Meatballs.  I love me some meatballs and Ocean Spray and Heinz teamed up to come up with this recipe and they are GENISUSES.  I’m telling you they are!

Two steps.  Three ingredients.

That’s it!

Not even I could ruin this one.  I don’t think.

In addition to coming up with this fantastic recipe for meatballs, which is a GREAT thing to take to any sort of potluck or eating event that you have to go to (that’s what they are getting at church on Sunday night!) but they put together a website that includes even more recipes and tips for entertaining.  It’s a wealth of knowledge.

Like I said, I actually made these, so you know that it has to be simple, and people liked them.  They’re all still living, too and whereas I once made Mac and Cheese everytime we had to bring a dish, I don’t have to go through all the trouble anymore.  I can just throw them in the crockpot and go or if I need them a little faster, I can use the stove.  (But I’ve learned that if I can avoid the burners, I should!)  The Ultimate Party Meatballs are ALWAYS a hit and I’ve even been asked HOW I make them.  That’s a compliment.

It’s also a shock because I’m not used to people asking ME for recipies.

Earlier this week, I grabbed another recipe off their site for dinner and we feasted on Cranberry-Barbecue Pork Ribs and they were amazing as well.  Even the kids ate them.  I’m telling you.  It’s good stuff.

So, just because the holidays are over doesn’t mean that you have to stop cooking.  Take a look at the site and jot down a few notes.  If nothing else, just know that if you have to throw something together quick or want to try something new, there are alot of great ideas on the site.

And don’t tell my church peeps that I’m bring meatballs…again. 

Until next time…
