I picked up a copy of Cook’s Illustrated over the weekend, and we’re going to be trying a few recipes from it this week. I’ve been thinking about getting a subscription, but the amount of heavy cream they use is holding me back.
Monday: Swedish Meatballs.
You can thank Ikea for my love of Swedish meatballs. I’ve never tried to make them at home before, but the first thing I thought when I tried the cranberry sauce I made at Thanksgiving was, “Oh, this would be great on Swedish meatballs!” I had a big container of the cranberries in the freezer, so it felt like providence when the meatballs were in Cook’s Illustrated this month.
Tuesday: Butternut Squash Ravioli
Wednesday: Tandoori Chicken
The recipe is only available to Cook’s Illustrated subscribers, but they’re offering a free trial of their online subscription. If you sign up for it, you have access to all of their online content.
Thursday: BBQ chicken sandwiches
I’m hoping to turn Wednesday’s tandoori into Thursday’s BBQ. We’ll see how that works.
Friday: Pizza
We miss Ikea! There’s no store in Vegas. But I love visiting the website.
Yummy menu.
I also enjoy every visit to your blog.

We tried a very tasty “Aloha Chicken” last night. It cooked all day, and produced lovely scents. Then all I had to do last night was rice and peas on the side. Let me know how the meatballs turn out. 🙂

The meatballs were pretty good. I reheated my portion after going to the gym. By all accounts, they were terrific when they were fresh.
