Herb Butter& Quick Italian Meatballs with Spaghetti.

Today I made herb butter to go on sourdough bread. I used a loaf of sourdough bread from the store and just warmed it in the oven. I put garlic and parsley in the butter. Then you put it on the bread and enjoy.  It goes very well with spaghetti and meatballs. It wasn’t that hard to make, and most of the family enjoyed it, especially my dad.

It’s found in Paula Deen’s magazine January/ February page 32.

I also made Quick Italian meatballs. It’s found in Paula Deen’s magazine May/ June 2013 page 22.

Although it doesn’t call for a lot of ingredients, it takes a long time to roll the meat into balls and then bakes for 15 min.  So, allow yourself enough time to prepare it.

It goes very well with the Herb Butter on sourdough bread. My family enjoyed it, but my sister doesn’t like meatballs.  So, she just had the sauce. 

Chocolate Pecan Pie (adapted from Paula Deen Magazine Sept/Oct 2012, p. 72)

Ingredients:

I made Chocolate Pecan Pie. I made it differently than what Paula Deen did. I made it the way that would please my whole family, because not everyone in my family likes pecans. We wanted to use up the milk so I made it with chocolate pudding. 

I first made the pudding, and then I poured it into a chocolate crust. Then I put the whip topping on. Then I put some pecans on half with a few chocolate chips and just chocolate chips on the other half. Then I put it in the refrigerator to let it get cold and set. 

A tip to remember: make sure you put the whip topping last and also let the pie set for a long time.
