Meatballs & Honey

Turkey meatballs + honey = gooey goodness. My standard recipe for turkey meatballs was missing a key ingredient this week, so rather than gambling with expired eggs I used honey for the “glue” that holds the meat and bread crumb mixture together. The results were moist meatballs with a pleasantly sweet flavor. (I didn’t overdo it – just drizzled probably 1/4 cup’s worth in the bowl.) Plus, I added dried oregano, salt and pepper.

I also credit the baking method – rather than frying in olive oil, I baked the meatballs in a pyrex dish. Healthier to boot!

Pork TENDERloin

Recipe for success: pork tenderloin + Rosemary + honey + pepper = amazingly tender. Perhaps it was due to the cooking method? I baked it on a cast iron griddle at 400 degrees for about 30-45 minutes.

Either way, it was delicious and still tender the second night.
