Man vs Woman – Buffalo Chicken Meatball Round

September 15, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 9 Comments

Hi everyone and Happy Saturday,

I have to tell you today I had the worse commute ever.  I travel 25 miles everyday at 5:15am to go to work.  This morning they had the freeway down to one lane and it is was just horrible.  It took me over an hour to get to work.  Just as I was getting ready to finally move then I noticed something move from the corner of my eye.  It was a black spider about the size of a quarter on my window, you know the driver’s side window.  I panicked!  What do I do?  What do I do?  It was dark out so I couldn’t tell if it was inside or outside the window.  So what do I do?  Open the window like an idiot to see if I could tell if was inside the car or not.  It fell!!  Ahhhhhh!!!  I don’t know where it fell too!  Did it fall outside or is it free somewhere in my car?  I grabbed every napkin I had in my car and kept it on my lap.  I drove with my right hand and kept my left had far away from the window.  I kept bouncing my leg so it wouldn’t crawl on it.  I was freaked!!!  Really freaked!!  I had that creepy crawly feeling, like it was on me.   I don’t even know what kind of spider it was, all I know is it was black and the size of a monster!!  As soon as I got to work, I opened my door and I couldn’t find it!!  I still don’t know if it is free in my car.  What if it decided to have babies?  Agh!!!  Has this ever happened to you?  Would you pull over to find it or cross your fingers it doesn’t touch you.  It was scary!!!  Eck!!!

Today is a special post on Man Vs Woman Buffalo Chicken Meatballs style.  Last week when I went to Sprouts they had ground chicken, I was so excited!  I can’t find ground chicken at any grocery store near me and I finally found it at sprouts and I knew right away what I wanted to make with it.  Ohhh, I was so excited!!!  I made spicy buffalo style meatballs with blue cheese crumbles.  These meatballs were amazing, better than I imagined they would be.  They are moist, tender with just a slight kick of heat from the Franks hot sauce and little pops of blue cheese flavor in them.  They are mighty good!!!  More like dam good!!  😉


I knew I couldn’t just serve these to my Husband for dinner, especially since he wasn’t so keen on ground chicken.  I swear that man won’t try anything new.  He’s so old school.  So whats a woman to do?  Eat them all herself?  Well, I probably could do that or make my Husband a meal that I know he would love.  So, I made him a sandwich that any man couldn’t resist!

I took 5, maybe 6 meatballs and poured Trader Joe’s 3 Cheese Pasta Sauce over them and topped it with pepper jack cheese on a french roll, placed it in the oven until the cheese was melted.  I served it to him all wrapped up in foil.  He opened it and his eyes lite up!!!  For me, I went light since I ate a fat sandwich for lunch, so all I did was take 3 meatballs and poured some pasta sauce over the top.  Oh man did it taste good!!  The three cheese sauce really complimented the Buffalo Chicken Meatball!!!

These meatballs really exceeded my expectations!  I can’t get over how good they are!!!  These would be perfect for serving as an appetizer with a side of blue cheese dressing, hot sauce or pasta sauce.  You could also top it on pasta, pizza, make a sub, or even break them up and place them on a salad.  The possibilities are endless with these meatballs.  If you like Buffalo Wings you will like these meatballs!!  Best part is, no bones!

These are super easy to make!  I took 1 pound ground chicken, 1/4 cup of Franks Wing Sauce, 1/2 cup whole wheat panko breadcrumbs and an egg.  Mix it all together and rolled into meatballs.  Actually the mixture is kind of wet, so I kind of juggled them from hand to hand to shape them.  I placed 1.5 oz. of meat into a mini muffin pan and cooked them for 20 minutes.   I love making my meatballs in a muffin pan.  If there is any grease it goes to the bottom, there easy to take out and you get a perfect shape!  Plus easy clean up.

I asked my Husband if he liked the meatballs and he said with a frown, yes there good!  I asked would you eat them again?  Yes!!  That’s all I need.  I think he doesn’t like when I cook something good and he actually likes it.  He’s so weird!!  Everyone always asks how do you cook for him?  Making meals like this is how I do it! Otherwise I make what I want and he goes to Subway!  lol

As I’m writing this post, I want another meatball.  I guess I could pop one in my mouth.  I only have 4 left.  I was planning on freezing them, but that won’t be happening.  Oh I wanted to show what they look like on the inside.  See the little specs of blue cheese?

So how do you like your meatballs?  As an appetizer?  In a sandwich or covered with pasta sauce?  I liked it in the sauce.  If you haven’t tried Trader Joe’s 3 Cheese Pasta Sauce, you should, it’s pretty good!!  This was the first time I tried it and we really liked it!  I”m thinking with my leftover meatballs I’m going to crumble it on a FlatOut bread and make a pizza with it!!  Ohhh, can’t wait till dinner.  Hubby, if you read this, it’s fend for yourself night!

Well my Friends it’s late Friday night and I must be going to bed, I have to get up early tomorrow.  Have a great weekend!!

Toodles,

Jen

    Any suggestion on using a different kind of cheese? Blue cheese and I don’t like each other 😉

      Hmmm, maybe a shredded cheddar cheese will work? I don’t think that would taste to bad!!

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!

Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden f Happy Wednesday! I am sharing with you my garden from last year. I’m gearing myself up to start working in the garden this weekend. It’s supposed to be mid 70’s. So if all goes planned you will be seeing quite a few gardening posts. 
🌺
Last years extreme summer heat took a major toll on my garden. I lost quite a few plants. 😫 For some reason I lost my Butterfly Bush. I plan on adding another one in the same spot. A lot of my lower flowers like Hummingbird Mint and my Coneflowers didn’t survive. We will be looking at the sprinkler system to make sure the plants are getting enough water. 
🌺
At least this garden is mainly annuals, so it should fill up with some color soon. I’m unsure what to do with my other gardens as my dogs have destroyed them. They keep on digging in the dirt. Maybe I should get them a sandbox to play in?
🌺
Have you started to work in your garden?

Happy Monday! Is there anything better than loungi Happy Monday! Is there anything better than lounging in bed reading a book to your fur babies? The boys 🐶🐶 just loved it. 
🐾
The boys will do anything to get on the bed, especially when you put on the @downlitebedding. I know you have heard me say it before, but they love there Downlite Bedding comforters and pillows. I have never seen 2 dogs get so excited.
🐾
We are all cozied up with the new Renew Comforter. It’s so soft and fluffy and not super heavy which is great for Spring weather. The comforter is 100% organic, 300 thread count with Lockshift baffle box construction and is machine washable!!
