my april menu

menu recap [week 35]

[week 35] Overall a pretty boring week on the cooking front. I made two different types of meatballs… turkey and beef/pork combo. Very different results… Earlier in the week, I had some leftover ground turkey so I made these turkey meatballs with a greek yogurt/sriracha dipping sauce.

Philly Firecrackers

I couldn’t resist these roll-ups on the 4th of July because of their name, Philly Firecrackers. I mean, how perfect is that for the 4th celebration? These are perfect year-round though as they are quick, easy and pack a punch with the tangy horseradish sauce. 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/2 cup sour cream 1 green onion, chopped 1/4 [...]
