These pineapple meatballs are a favorite for any occasion. I made 14 pounds of meatballs for my sister's graduation party, and I only had 1 medium container left. My mother made sloppy joes, and needless to say, they had a lot of leftovers because everyone loved these meatballs. Guaranteed favorite!

Three Sisters Soup
The Iroquois Indians cultivated and used the Three Sisters (corn, squash, and beans) in their diet. This soup recipe is passed down by our relatives. You may use regular corn instead of hominy, but hominy is more traditional.
Spicy Jalapeno Chicken Sliders
These spicy sliders are perfect in the summer when you are tired of the usual grilling fare! Serve with lettuce, tomato, and spicy ranch dressing.
Spicy Tuna Rice Bowl
What we have here is equal parts tuna and rice by weight, which for me, gives this the perfect balance between protein and starch. While this may remind some people of a fried rice dish, this is significantly lighter, and actually very low on fat content, but that doesn't mean it's not satisfying, and like most rice dishes, it's very comforting.
