Dear Sarah:
Sounds really good. 
I love Bow-Tie pasta, but only ONE meatball ? ???
I hope it was a big one !!!!
What kinds of things did you put in your sauce??  Mushrooms?  Green Peppers?  Onions?  Garlic?
HUGS,
DANIELLE

@Northern Star Girl

I made a batch of large meatballs that I browned and then braised in the sauce. The meatballs were pretty large, and I actually had one and a half meatballs. The sauce was pretty basic: a large can of San Marzano tomatoes that I smashed, a little sauteed onion and garlic, tomato paste, teaspoon of sugar, seasonings. I forgot to throw in grated carrot...carrots do a wonderful job balancing out the acidity, and the sauce needed that. But it was still pretty good.

Be a good example of good behavior.  Always be kinder than needed.  Be tender to others.  You are as beautiful as the thoughts you think and the words that your speak.   Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding.  Knowledge and action shown without love is not impressive.  If you look for the good in people you will find it. Healthy relationships are so important to good living.  Serve others.

Good living, joy, unity, love, and happiness can come from following these practices: Never let selfishness or conceit motivate you.  Regard others as more important than yourself.  Do not limit attention to only your interests, but include the interests of others. 

It is not usually about how fast you transition, it is about how well you transition.

Meatball salad. Meatball bits, romaine, tomato, onion, pepperoncinis, parm, coutons and a splash of Caesar dressing. Kinda random, but pretty good! Would be better with Parmesan crisps. Might try that next time.

Before I left for my office this morning I put a   Chicken and Rice Casserole   in my oven Timed Bake.

..... Chicken Breasts, Rice, Mushrooms, Mushroom Cream Soup, and a package of frozen mixed vegetables.

I will probably make a small green salad to go with dinner.

Sarah

This is close to what I have in mind:
     Sauteed Onion
     RoTel tomatoes/green chilies
     Garbanzo Beans (to simulate Indian Chana)
     Tikka Masala sauce (serious herbs and SPICES)

     This gets served with rice.  A sort of do it yourself Indian meal

It hits the spot once in awhile.

Cooked a leg of lamb Indian style (marinated in yogurt and spices before roasting under foil) and today used it to make a Jalfrezi . Very nice as its like a bubble and squeak  .

I heated up a packaged frozen Chicken Alfredo. Meh.

The Caesar Salad I made was also mediocre because I didn’t have any anchovies in the pantry.
