BBQ Meatballs

Just wanted to prove that I still can cook! I was looking back on my previous posts and I haven't posted a main dish since Luke was born... and well, that has been 5 months next week! I am going to do better with that. In fact, I have set a goal to make 2 posts a week for right now. One every Tuesday and one every Thursday. So stay tuned for some delicious recipes to come. :)

These BBQ Meatballs came from The Pioneer Woman. She is an amazing cook and has a great sense of humor. I love reading her blog posts and looking at her cookbooks. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE cookbooks?? But not just any cookbook, the ones with pictures! Yummmm... Well, she takes wonderful looking pictures that make me want to try every last one of her recipes. I have a link up on the top right to her cookbook just so you all can see what I am talking about! If you get the cookbook, you will love it too!
