Greek Meatballs on Pitas This meal is one of the greater successes with our kids. They love meatballs. This style of meatball tastes fresh and sweet with a bit of tang. This recipe is modified from Rachael Ray's version and we love making them (especially because they freeze so easy). Meatballs: 2 lbs. ground beef (or ground lamb) 1/4 cup feta 2 T flour or bread crumbs 1 tsp oregano 1 bunch mint chopped 2 tsp cinnamon 1 egg Salt & Pepper Hand mix. Roll into meatballs. I typically divide this into two bags and freeze. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes. Serve on pitas with tzatziki (how do you spell this word??)  sauce. Tzatziki Sauce: 1 cup plain greek yogurt Zest of 1 lemon ~2-3 shakes of dill 2 Tbsp. chopped cucumber Salt and pepper to taste Enjoy!

Memphis BBQ Pulled Pork on Pretzel Rolls This is one of our favorite meals. I love that it freezes easily and is a great go-to meal if we'll be having company for dinner. I'm also pretty notorious for bringing this to new mamas after having a baby. (It's like a push present. You're welcome.)   3 lb. pork butt OR pork loin 1 packet Memphis BBQ rub 1/4 cup brown sugar if you like it sweet, or 1 tsp red pepper flakes if you like it spicey Add 1 cup of water upon cooking. 8 hours on low in the crock pot. When done, shred and serve on pretzel rolls with BBQ sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's is our favorite). This is also the pulled pork I use on top of my BBQ Mac & Cheese . Enjoy!

So here's something awesome. And delicious. I was out at Hop Jacks with some friends over the summer and a friend ordered the BBQ Mac and Cheese. It is Mac and cheese topped with bacon, topped with pulled pork, and then smothered with BBQ sauce. I could make that! So I did. I served this at Maci's birthday party and it was a huge hit. So I'm passing on the awesomeness to you.
