And I really like the concept of not eating out in New York. I tried it last Lent for 40 days and 40 nights (see my website link--hope it works), and it was VERY HARD. Good luck to you & I look forward to keeping up with your NEOINY experiment! Hi, I just found your blog right now. And I really like the concept of not eating out in New York.

Very crafty :) Not to mention yummy sounding. I wholeheartedly endorse the freezer batch idea. Excellent for a quick meal on a rough day/nite. They even seem to taste better reheated after freezing. I always wind up making mini meatballs in some sort of weird spicy/sweet sauce for parties and then freezing a bunch so that I don't get overwhelmed with party prep. It's such a retro party thing, but they go fast, no matter how many I make an it's fun to spear em with a cocktail toothpick! I love leftover Frankenstien-esque meals that come out well!

I would much rather cook, but when I get home from work at 8 or 9, I'll admit, the frozen food comes out. thew, yes I’m lazy every once and awhile.

Thew: I completely agree about meatloaf -- and so fun to experiment with, too. Erin: Never thought of making a big batch and freezing them -- thanks for the good idea! Thanks Smerky!

Sometimes leftovers make the best food, good job! Perhaps they may be leftovers but that’s the prettiest meatball dish I’ve seen in a while. Sometimes leftovers make the best food, good job!

People buy frozen meatballs? What's up with that? Is there anything simplier to put together than a meatball, or, all the meatballs together into a meatloaf, another humbly named but, when done right, exquisite production.

Maybe I'll make a bunch of these some weekend and freeze them--I've fallen in love with the convenience of Trader Joe's frozen turkey meatballs, but I'm quite sure they have way too much sodium and random turkey parts.
