These venison meatballs are great on their own, but pairing them with a creamy tangy mustard sauce puts them over the top. Serve over pasta or rice, if desired.
Summer Peach, Basil & Cheddar Muffins
Nothing says summer like a ripe, juicy peach and fresh, fragrant basil. I love pairing fruits with cheese, and this muffin recipe was inspired by apple Cheddar muffins my mom used to make. These savory sidekicks have just a hint of sweetness and make the perfect addition to your summer brunch table.
