Hawaiian Meatballs

This is a nice change from the typical meatballs you make for dinner with spaghetti, or the Italian meatballs you make as an appetizer.

This dinner is a nice little trip to paradise in your mouth. It only has a couple ingredients and doesn't have to cook as long as most dinners that you put in the crock pot.

Serve it over rice (I used brown rice, because I LOVE it) or just eat it plain, either way it's delicious. The sauce is so flavorful and takes no effort at all to make.

Definitely an easy weekday dinner to make!

Hawaiian Meatballs

Ingredients:
-32 oz package of precooked, frozen meatballs
-13.5 oz can of unsweetened pineapple chucks (put juice aside)
-1 large green pepper, diced (I cut mine into bigger chunks so they wouldn't get that "soggy" texture)
-1 cup brown sugar
-2T cornstarch
-2/3 cup vinegar
-2T soy sauce

Place meatballs in crock pot and top with green pepper and drained pineapple chunks. In a separate bowl, mix reserved pineapple juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, and soy sauce. Pour sauce over meatballs, pineapple and green peppers. Cook on low for 3-4 hours.

Crunchy Peanut Butter Mix

Lately I have been eating the HECK out of muddy buddies! Sadly, I can finish a whole bag to myself, no problem. So I figured instead of me always going to the store and buying bags upon bags of muddy buddies, I would figure out a way to make them from home. This little mix is SO much better, only because it has more ingredients in it. So easy and it makes a TON of it! Great fall colors incorporated too, so it'll be fun to make for the kids to pack in their lunch as a "happy going back to school" snack! I hope you LOVE this as much as I do! Crunchy Peanut Butter Mix Ingredients - 4 c golden grahams cereal - 2 c coca puffs cereal - 2 c pretzel stucks - 1 c reeses pieces - 1 c dry-roasted panuts - 10 oz white chocolate baking bars or squares, chopped - 2 T butter - 1/2 c powdered sugar In a large bowl, mix cereals, pretzels, peanut butter candies and peanuts; set aside. In a 1-quart microwavable bowl, microwave white chocolate and butter uncovered for 1 m...

Parmesan Zucchini and Corn

Here we are getting into the fall months and all we want to do is spend our time bundled up in a blanket on the couch with a cup of tea and the Food Network channel on all day...oh wait, maybe that's just me. I ventured out yesterday from my warm, cozy home and went to my cousin's game night, where we played Farkle (such a fun dice game!) and Cards Against Humanity (always a good laugh with this game). It was an appetizer and snack food kind of night, and I knew my sister was coming who just so happens to be a Vegetarian! So I figured I'd cater towards her just in case there wasn't a lot of other options for food (we are a meat loving family). This is so quick to throw together, less than 15 minutes with prep time! And, IT'S DELICIOUS! Kids and adults alike will love this yummy side dish. Bring it as an appetizer or just make it as a side for dinner! Ingredients: 2T olive oil 2 cloves minced garlic 4 zucchini, diced (it's fall, so squash is winding...
