I had been thinking about a big bowl of pasta for some reason and spaghetti and meatballs came to mind. My idea of comfort food
Almost all of the ingredients are things we keep on hand.
Ingredients
1 lb Spaghetti
1.5 pounds Hot Italian Turkey Sausage
1 Small Onion
2 28oz cans Whole Tomatoes
Pinch of Red Pepper Flakes
Olive Oil
Salt/Pepper
Directions
Salt and boil water for spaghetti. Add spaghetti and cook about 7 minutes, drain.
Remove sausage from casings and create 20-30 small meatballs, add to a dutch oven that was coated with olive oil. Cook meatballs until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove meatballs and set aside. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add cans of tomato, red pepper flakes and cook 5 minutes while breaking down whole tomatoes, add meatballs back in for 7 minutes until sauce thickens slightly. Serve sauce and meatballs over noodles.
Sam’s Club had a great variety of fruit this week and I picked up blackberries, strawberries, pears, apples, and kiwi. I chopped up enough fruit to make a quick fruit salad. I topped each salad with scoops of So Delicious Soy Ice Cream, not the same as real ice cream but it was still pretty tasty. Fruit and ice cream is my idea of a perfect dessert.

Off to relax a bit, watch the Twins and hopefully get a good night of sleep.
