The sign up sheet looks a little light on meat

was thinking about making a small turkey, but a casserole maybe would be better? I have a hot tray that I can plug in

TIA! smileys/smile.gif

I just brought a whole crockpot full of meatballs in teriyaki sauce today for our PL and

I have more people asking for the recipe. It was an easy easy throw together. I used frozen meatballs, 1 can of pineapple chunks, 3/4 of 1 bottle of Yoshida's sauce, 1 green and 1 red pepper in chunks, 1 small onion in chunks, several slices of fresh ginger and 2 cloves of garlic slivered and a few dashes of pepper flakes. I added a T of cornstarch to some of the pineapple juice for thickening a bit. I just warmed it all for a couple of hours and we cooked up some plain rice.

 
I was going to bring this to school, but since it is so cold here have decided on soups...

I was going to bring a crockpot full of meatballs in spaghetti sauce and serve with sliced dinner rolls for people to make meatball sliders. We did this a few weeks ago with family and everyone loved them. There wasn't one left. I used my McCall's Italian Meatball recipe. It has lots of flavor, very garlicky.

 
Here you go Sandi. I really like this one, but I usually double

the garlic at least. It's -5 here this morning. And we got six inches of snow yesterday. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!

I usually bake these rather than fry them, and I usually do 5# ground beef, then flash freeze them and keep them in zip loc bags in the freezer.
