Mongolian Beef Meatballs

April 17, 2020 by Annie Chesson 6 Comments

Mongolian Beef Meatballs - Just like the classic takeout dish, but in a fun new form: meatballs! Saucy, tender, and SO flavorful! Delicious served over rice! TheGarlicDiaries.com

This is one of those dinners that's fun and a little bit whimsical. Turning meatballs into things that are usually other things is just fun! Do you know what I mean when I say that? Things like buffalo chicken meatballs. Aaaaand after sitting here for five minutes, that's the only example I can think of, but the point is...you can do a lot of fun things with meatballs! Blaming my lack of examples ...

Fettuccine and Meatballs with Butternut Squash Sauce

October 19, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Okay, pause what you're doing. Did you know that you can make a super creamy, luxurious, smooth, velvety sauce that consists 95 percent of pureed butternut squash? This sauce is smoother and creamier than any cheese sauce I've seen, and it's literally butternut squash with just half a cup of mascarpone cheese and half a cup of parmesan stirred in for some extra flavor/creaminess. The combo of ...

Crock Pot Meatball Sub Soup

October 13, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

Crock pot season, crock pot season, crock pot seaassoonnnn! I'm actually not the biggest fan of crock pots, but I do love them for the coziness. You really only break out your crock pot to cook fall and winter food. Fall and winter food is cozy. Thus...crock pots are cozy. See the logical trail? My only issue with crock pots is that I don't like to use them if the recipe would be just as good and ...

Pesto Chicken Meatballs Over Lemon Arugula

June 10, 2016 by Annie Chesson 6 Comments

Between this recipe and the Chicken Meatballs with Thai Coconut Curry SauceĀ I posted recently, I think that chicken meatballs are my new besties. #bestiesforlife. Why? Because they are healthy, easy, and super yummy. Chicken is a much lighter meat than beef, and it also has a more subtle taste. Still supa delicious, but it yields to other flavors better, liiiikkkkkeeeeee curry sauce or PESTO, for ...

Crock-Pot BBQ Meatballs

December 24, 2015 by Annie Chesson 10 Comments

Oh, hello little morsels of sweet, tangy deliciousness. The simplicity of this recipe will surprise you when you taste the end result! The extent of your prep work is throwing some onions and garlic into a couple pounds of ground meat, rolling them into balls, and popping them in a crock pot. It's just about as easy as it gets! If you want to be cool and fancy, unlike myself, and use homemade ...

Thai Meatball Lettuce Wraps

July 20, 2015 by Annie Chesson 78 Comments

I have a new obsession. And that obsession is Thai food. It all started a few months ago when Seth and I ran in the Spartan Race that I talked a little bit about here, and afterwards went out to eat with his family at a Thai restaurant in Charlotte called Basil. So before eating at this delicious restaurant, I was under the impression that I hated curry with a burning passion. Which still isn't ...
