Swedish-ish Meatballs

Swedish-ish Meatballs I LisaGCooks.com

First, traditional Swedish meatballs use half ground beef and half ground pork (I only used ground beef). Second, I added garlic but really; I’m half Italian and I ...

Mexican Red-Beans with Rice

August 12, 2016 By Lisa 2 Comments

Mexican Red-Beans with Rice I made this rice dish last time we had Beef Chimichangas for dinner.  I used white rice.  There, I said it.  I used white rice.  I like white rice.  White rice is delicious but there is no way to dress it up to make it healthy.  So to stretch the naughty that is the white rice, I've added lots of onion, red pepper and ...
