Tasty Tuesday Linkup #49 and Exciting Tasty News
Hey guys! Happy Tasty Tuesday Linkup day to you! How was your weekend?
Mine just flew by. Seriously, before I knew it – it was Sunday night 🙁
This Saturday we (just out of the blue) decided it was Christmas – Take #2 at our house, at least food wise.
Hubby made an incredibly delicious leg of lamb! (I have no idea what’s gotten into him, I was afraid I’d spook him if I asked).
Leftover Turkey Soup Recipe and Tasty Tuesday Linkup 43
Hey guys!
Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you had a nice holiday.
We ran/walked the Turkey Trot on the Thanksgiving morning:
And then we got home, put the turkey in the oven and snuggled with the kitty for a bit:
Our turkey was 15lb, but this year it was just the two of us on Thanksgiving, so we had plenty of leftovers!
Since ’tis the season of soups, and our bodies were begging for something lighter after the Thanksgiving feast, I made soup.
But! Before I could make soup – I made turkey broth. The wise and awesome friend of mine named Jennifer had an awesome idea which I used to make my broth. Check it out here – I promise, you’ll never use store bought broth again!
See? I told you that girl was genius!
So, back to the soup recipe. This one is super easy and quick to make, as most of my recipes.

Meatballs Recipe and Tasty Tuesday Linkup Party
Hey guys! How was your weekend?
We took it easy this past weekend and didn’t really do much except for the usual work around the house and weekend errands like grocery shopping and all that jazz 🙂
So I was thinking about what recipe to share with you today for the Tasty Tuesday, and here’s what I came up with. When I moved to the US three years ago I was a little overwhelmed by how much the food was different from what I was used to growing up. So, thinking of this week’s Tasty Tuesday reminded me of one of the things that were different here in the US – meatballs.
Ok, think of how people serve meatballs in the US? Correct! Over spaghetti 🙂 And that’s about the only serving option, unless you’re at IKEA and ordering Swedish meatballs, but that’s a whole different territory 🙂
Wanna know how people eat meatballs in Russia? Read on! 🙂
In fact, there will be two variations of the meatballs recipe in this post – one is my variation on the American version (over spaghetti), and the other variation will be the Russian style meatballs.
Ready?

Crockpot Chili Recipe and Tasty Tuesday Linkup Party #39
Hey guys! Happy Tasty Tuesday 🙂 It’s Linkup Party time on Lean Lena.
I feel like it’s getting colder by the minute outside! This time of year I am craving soups. You? 🙂
Soup is just about the easiest thing you can cook, in my opinion. Anybody can make soup.
With the invention of crockpots that easy task is even easier to accomplish. What can be better than coming home to a bowl of warm soup? Almost nothing other than someone to share it with.
So, here’s what’s been cooking in my kitchen all day yesterday and made yummy Monday night dinner:Continue Reading
Quinoa Stuffed Squash – Tasty Tuesday Recipe Feature and Linkup
Hey-hey! How was your weekend, guys?
We were working on our kitchen this weekend. We have finally painted the walls! Now to put in the ceiling 🙂 Slow but sure we’re making some progress with our kitchen.
Because my kitchen (and pretty much the whole house because of the kitchen project) is a mess, I didn’t cook anything new this weekend to share with you today.

Every Tuesday I post a recipe, a collection of recipes, a restaurant review or anything related to food.

Linking back = spreading the word = giving back.Continue Reading
