Foodie Fans of the Pioneer Woman: Meatballs for comfort


The theme for this round of Foodie Fans of the Pioneer Woman was "Main Courses" and there are so many good ones to choose from. A few I've even remembered to take pictures of.

My choice for this theme was Ree's Comfort Meatballs, found on pages 172 - 173 of The Pioneer Woman Cooks.

I admit, the first time I made this recipe, I doubled it and threw half of it in the freezer for later. I just assumed it would be good and we'd all like it. How could we not? It was meatballs. With a sticky sauce.


I served this, the first time, with buttered Parmesan tortellini, and the frozen batch was served later with mashed potatoes. Yum, yum, yum.

Unfortunately, I have none left in my freezer now.

PS to Debby - I'm only now actually reading the last round up (my bad), and see you called for help. Sorry I missed that and have been unable to jump in an volunteer!

These look delicious and I love your choice to serve them with tortellini, although I would equally love them with mashed potatoes:D Great choice!

I can't wait to try these. I usually serve meatballs with spaghetti, but I love the idea of having mash with them.

Thanks for dropping by my blog! Your meatballs look delicious. I would never have thought about meatballs without spaghetti!
