It's been awhile....

I know I have not been posting recipes but I a promise you I have been cooking. I have made so many things I am not sure where to start, I guess one place would be to talk about the super yummy spaghetti and meatballs. Usually I try to make the meatballs in the oven just to try and be healthier but not this time.....I fried them yes that is right I fried them. The house smelled just heavenly and boy that tiny crust on the balls was just wonderful. After they were cooked I placed them in some of my homemade sauce which was also great.

Then I made some pork chunks...remember those? I mentioned them the last time I posted. Well I again I was bad adn a fried them up in olive oil and served those with brown rice and black beans. Just to top it off I put some of my very special homemade hot sauce - the recipe is compliments of my dad "grandpa coconut".

I was planning a rather fancy meal this past week but I got sick on Sunday and spent most of the day in the ER with what we  thought was an appendicitis. Turns out it was not that but given the time spent away from home we had Wendy's -- which after a day of not eating was the best meal of my life.......

tonight I made some stuffed peppers, this meal is fast becoming on of my favorites. I never ate peppers before trying this meal now I love them. Boy what a difference a recipe can make. I stuffed them with lean ground meat, buffalo chicken sausage and a mix of veggies - tonight they were asparagus, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower and onion. I forgot to buy tomatoes with green chilies so I put some crushed red pepper flakes in for a little heat. I really enjoyed them...this is one I do not mind eating more than one day.

Pics and recipes to come.....
