Game Night 2

So we are going to a game night at another couples place tonight. We were told it would be appetizers and italian.

We decided to make the following appetizers. Photos coming. I made Anthony take some :)

BBQ Meatballs (no I do not do the grape jelly thing)
1 pound ground meat
1/3 cup chopped onion (which we ended up sauteing with some garlic first)
1/2 cup italian bread crumbs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 egg
1/4 cup milk

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix all ingredients and form bite sized balls. Bake for about 10 -12 minutes. We put foil on a sheet pan and bake them on that.

BBQ sauce
2 cups Heinz chili sauce (2 bottles)
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons dry mustard
3 tablespoons chopped onion
2 cloves garlic
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
2 drops Tabasco sauce
2 tablspoons butter
2 bay leaves

Mix all together in a saucepan and simmer for an hour. After simmering take out the bay leaves. (I throw the sauce in the crockpot and flip it on high because I put the meatballs in there and keep the pot on while people are eating). Add the meatballs to sauce and bake in a covered casserole dish for an hour.

Low Iodine Diet

I have to be on this low iodine diet for a while. At least until the end of February. You will be seeing some new recipes coming as my husband and I try to cook things to fit this diet. More info can be found here Thyroid Cancer Survivor Association I don't have thyroid cancer. I do have to have the same treatment as a thyroid cancer patient would have. Don't worry! I'll be fine in a few months. Some of the guidelines include -No seafood. no problem since I don't eat any -No soy products. no soy sauce, no tofu, no soy beans. sadness :( -No processed foods. The frozen meals I like to eat at lunch at work are now OUT. AHHHHHHHHHH and so are things like canned soup. Good bye tomato soup in a can -No dairy. Whatever is used to clean the cow milking equipment has iodine. how will I like without milk, cheese, and yogurt. it really puts a damper on my breakfast options. -Only fresh bread. I just threw a loaf of sliced wheat bread in the freezer for when the diet...
