Meatball Bubble Biscuits

My girls loved these. They were so cute and fun to eat.  I  made my own meatballs. It would be super fast and easy to use the pre-made ones from the store like the recipe says. I will add my meatball recipe in case you want to make your own. I also made them ahead of time and just covered them and put them in my fridge so when it was time for dinner all I had to do was throw them in the oven. Nice and Easy!

Here is my meatball recipe...

1 lb hamburger

1 egg

1 cup bread crumbs

1 onion finely chopped

4 cloves of garlic minced

1/2 tsp Worcestershire Sauce

1/4 c Parsley

1/4 c Parmesan Cheese

Salt and Pepper to taste.

Preheat the oven to 450.

 Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Don't over mix, just enough to combine the ingredients. Roll into balls, place on a cookie sheet. Bake for about 12 minutes or until the center of the meatballs are cooked through.

(If I have leftover meatballs I usually freeze them and take them out when I need them. The still taste yummy and you would never know the were frozen.)

Greek Style Skillet

1 lb Hamburger
1/2 c. Chopped Onion
2 tsp Oregano
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1 can Beef Broth
1 can Diced Tomatoes
2 tbsp Tomato Paste
1 1/2 c. Penne Pasta
1 1/2 c Frozen Spinach (thawed)
3/4 c. Feta Cheese

Cook hamburger and onion in skillet, until hamburger is done. Drain fat and add oregano, cinnamon and garlic powder mix well. Stir in broth, tomatoes, and tomato paste. Bring to a biol stir in pasta. Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook 10 minites unitl the pasta is nearly tender. stir in spinach and 1/2 c. of feta cheese. Cover and cook 5 minutes until pasta is done. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Roast

3-5 lb Roast
4 Onions cut into large pieces
1c. Beef Broth
1/2 c. Beer (or Apple Juice)
1 tbsp Brown Sugar
2 tbsp Dijon Mustard
1 tbsp Cider Vinegar

In a skillet add a little bit of oil and cook the onions until tender. Add the broth, beer/apple juice, brown sugar, mustard, and vinegar and mix until combines. Heat until warm.

Place your roast in a crock pot and pour onion mixture over roast. Cover and cook on high for 5-6 hours.

**If you don't like onions you can leave them out, without a huge taste difference. Also it may seem like a lot of onions but once they cook for 5-6 hours they cook down to almost nothing.

Pulled Pork or Beef

I got this recipe from family in Minnesota...Lots of good food comes from there!

3-5 lb roast (either Pork or Beef works well)
2 pkgs Italian Salad dressing mix (the dry stuff)
1 pkg Lipton Onion Soup Mix

Place the roast in your crock pot, pour the seasonings over the roast and cook until the meat falls apart. on high 4-5 hours on low 6-7 hours.

You can use this to make sandwiches, or put it on a salad. It is really good, and way easy.
