Ellen's Lemon Zucchini Bread
This is the best lemon zucchini bread I've ever baked or tasted. The recipe came from a friend of my mom's. She kept raving about this bread she had made while visiting. After I had made it the first time, I could understand why. If I don't put this in the freezer right away, it is gone! Butter is really good on this bread if you aren't worried about the calories and fat.
Air Fryer Pasta Chips
These pasta chips are crunchy, salty, and delicious. I like them plain but feel free to serve them with a marinara dipping sauce if desired. Store in an airtight container.
The Best Meatballs
Learn how to make meatballs with this recipe that is the best meatball recipe I have ever tried! I've used the combination of pork, beef, and veal but you can make them with just ground beef and they still taste great. Definitely use fresh bread crumbs and freshly grate your cheese instead of using the canned variety... It really does make a difference!
