Cookies and Meatballs!

Yepper, today I made cookies and Meatballs. The other night, (midnight cooking,) I made crockpot, bar-b-que chicken.

Put a couple of those into a Ziplock bowl and freeze for a lunch-munch.

A lot like my other Ziplock, single-servings of interesting meals, such as Spaghetti and meatballs.

I'll copy and paste something I wrote a while ago, (sorry, the pics won't just copy and paste; I just tried.) This is written to share with some friends inside... friends who are NOT all going to ever get out. They just have to live vicariously, I guess. Hope I can help.

"So, today was cooking day, (Sunday,) and I got decently busy. The other night, (midnight cooking,) I made crockpot bar-b-que chicken. Served it to some friends, (a couple of homeless buddies I feed,) and then froze the rest for the week.

So, today I got busy again. I wanted some other stuff for the coming week.

So, first thing in the morning I started cherry tomatoes in the crockpot, with oregano, parsley, rosemary, basil, parsley, etc… You get the idea. I stewed them down to get ready for the next step.

MEATBALLS!

Into the meat went oats, parmesan cheese, Gorgonzola cheese, Worcestershire sauce, onion, garlic, fresh herbs again, and then I fried them olive oil, in cast-iron. (I use a small ice cream scoop to get perfect sizing every time.)

As each small batch of meatballs finishes frying I transfer them to the crockpot with the tomatoes.

Then, as I’m doing that, I chop the other veggies, green pepper, more onion and garlic, mushrooms, (I got lazy at this point and did not fry them first,) etc… tossed it all into the crockpot, dumped three large cans of spaghetti sauce over it all and abandoned it for a few hours.

All I have to do is make spaghetti and dump it over it when my buddies get here.

Also did Fruit Coctail Oatmeal cookies.
