Family Sicilian Meatballs and Sauce
My mother's family originally came from Sicily and every family member makes his or her own version - this version came most recently via Brooklyn. If there are any leftovers, they freeze very well. MANGIA! Serve with red wine and a good loaf of crusty Italian bread.
Egg and Hash Brown Pie
Not only is this breakfast casserole with hash browns and bacon easy to make and great tasting, but it's also pleasing to the eyes with its shades of golden brown, yellow, and green. This dish is great served with sliced fruit and toast or muffins. You may substitute chopped cooked ham for the bacon if you wish.
