RECIPES:
ITALIAN MEATBALL SOUP – For the meatballs I used ground turkey, but you could do sausage, ground beef or chicken too. I mixed breadcrumbs, grated parm cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, fresh chopped basil, and an egg and then rolled into tiny meatballs and cooked in a skillet with olive oil. Once browned on each side, I placed in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes or until cooked through and set aside. In a pot I cooked chopped onions, celery, and carrots until soft, added minced garlic and cooked for another 30 seconds or so and then added water and a spoonful of better than bouillon chicken and a spoonful of better than bouillon onion flavor, a large can of crushed tomatoes and a can of tomato soup, then I used my immersion blender to puree all the vegetables and make a smooth broth. Add more Italian seasoning, fresh chopped basil and salt and pepper to taste. Then I added in the meatballs and ditalini pasta. Once the pasta was done, I served with grated parmesan cheese and fresh bread.
BRUSCHETTA – Very easy and went with my Italian themed Sunday. In a bowl mix fresh chopped basil, chopped plum tomatoes, olive oil, grated parmesan cheese, salt, oregano, and garlic powder. I sliced a French baguette, sprayed a cookie sheet with pam, then put garlic butter on each piece of bread and shredded mozzarella cheese and cooked for 5 minutes at 350, removed from the oven and topped with my tomato mixture and cooked for another 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and drizzle balsamic glaze on top.
