Chicken Marsala Meatballs for National Meatball Day!
We shall make Chicken Marsala Meatballs. Because TODAY is National Meatball Day! With the way I love meatballs, this food holiday is deserving of a celebration. A Meatball Palooza if you will. I have so many meatball recipes to share (and several I’ve yet to create) that we’ll need days to properly honor those perfectly packaged bundles of love. I shall call this celebration March Meatball Madness and share a meatball recipe every day for the remainder of the month.

Steak & Potato Soup
Steak & Potato Soup was a sentimental entry, since it came from my husband Nick. With winter ragging across most of the country, I posed this question on Facebook: What is your favorite soup? I received a nice variety of responses, which included some of my favorite soups like Broccoli Cheddar and Italian Wedding and others that I had yet to recreate at home.
