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!!

Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and Hi Everyone! I’m done decorating my kitchen and oh my gosh, I love it!! Pink is so fun! I thought I would share with you how I styled my kitchen sink area.
💗
The inspiration for this space came from the stunning pieces that I was gifted from my friend Britni @arcadian.collective. I love her shop! Such timeless, elegant pieces that will last a lifetime.
💗
I received from Arcadian Collective the solid marble Seraphine Butter Bell, Vintage European solid brass Salt & Pepper Mill, Carrara Cielo Marble Stone Serveware and the cutest pink little Christmas candle. Check out my Arcadian Collective highlight for more details on each product. They would make a great holiday gift!
💗
Hope you have a wonderful day! I’ll be working on the living room today.

Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my a Happy World Kindness Day! This weekend I made my annual snow jar to place on my shelf in the kitchen. You get a tiny sneak peak of my shelves at the end of the reel. The snow jars are so easy to do and you probably have most of the items on hand. 
💗
For the snow, I used blanket snow. You could also use, sugar or Epsom salt. I like the blanket snow because it’s not messy and it hides the fairy lights battery pack.
💗
The houses are ornaments that I bought at Target. I thought they were Perfect for my pink kitchen. Of course you can use whatever you have on hand. It doesn’t have to be a house and tree.
💗
If you buy fairy lights, make sure they have a timer on them. Trust me that will make life easier. If you don’t like fairy lights, you can use a faux candle. 
Ohhh and have a stack of batteries. I go through more batteries in the month of December then I do the rest of the year!
💗
Items used:
Apothecary jar
Fairy lights with timer
Pink house ornament
Bottlebrush tree
Pink ribbon 

Everything, but the pink ribbon was bought at Target. 
💗
Have fun creating! If you make one, tag me so I can share!!

Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last Happy Monday! Here is a little throwback from last years Christmas. I plan on doing green again in the living room. I just think it looks classic, plus I have all the decor already. So no need to buy more.
🎄
But I still do plan on doing pink in my kitchen. I figured I could use some pink everyday pieces that I already have and add pops of pink ornaments and pink little Christmas trees. I plan doing some shopping this week to see what I can find in pink. I’m so excited!! 
🎄
Have a fantastic Monday!

Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. Happy Monday! Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile. My husband was sick with the flu, then he passed it on to me. My dog even had an upper respiratory infection. Ugh! It was a rough 2 weeks. Then on Friday I had surgery to remove skin cancer on my chest. I’m sore and I can’t lift or exercise. Anyway, that’s why I have not been on.
🦇
I wanted to give you one last look at my Halloween kitchen before I change it out. Not sure if I’m going to add some Fall or Christmas next. Did you know Christmas is in 63 days? 😳
🦇
So I have been thinking about Christmas colors. The past 2 years I have done green and I love it, however I have always wanted to do a pink Christmas. Just not sure if I can pull it off? I don’t know if I want to go crazy and buy a bunch of pink? What color are you doing this year?
🦇
Have a great day!!

Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great Hello! Happy October! Hope you are having a great start to the month. I received the cutest fragrance package from @myclaireburke. I couldn’t wait to add these wonderful fragrances to my home.
🍎
The scent I received is Apple Jack & Peel. It’s fresh apples with cinnamon and a hint of citrus. It smells like fall. Reminds me of when we go to Apple Hill to go apple picking, which we will be doing next week.
🍎
The scent is warm and cozy and the candle and potpourri is so pretty. Not only do these look so pretty in my home, but they would make such a wonderful housewarming gift. I wish you could smell them.
🍎
If you are looking for Fall and Winter scented fragrances. I highly recommend checking out @myclaireburke

Have a great day!

It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I It’s time for my annual pumpkin bath picture. I don’t know what it is, but I love to give pumpkins a bath. Don’t they look cute bathing in the sunlight with bubbles around them? lol
🎃
There are two methods that I have used  in the past; the chlorine bath and the dish soap bath. This is what I have learned.
🎃
My favorite and only way I wash pumpkins now is using dish soap.  It gets rid of the sap and makes them clean. I soak my pumpkins for about 20 minutes. The pumpkins will last until December. Plus if you keep your pumpkins after the holidays it will decay and grow pumpkins the following year. Plus it’s safe for animals that may nibble on your pumpkin.
🎃
The chlorine bath method will make your pumpkins last possibly up to a year. They take very long to break down and I never got my pumpkins to seed themselves. Plus it is not safe for animals in my opinion. Though Clorox Bleach says it’s safe, they just taste salty.
🎃
The key to washing pumpkins is to make sure that you get the area around the stem dry. You don’t want water around the stem. This could make your pumpkin rot sooner. So after the bath, dry your pumpkins off very good. 
🎃
Did you get your pumpkins yet?
.
PS if you are in the Bay Area, I highly recommend going to @threenunnsfarm to get your pumpkins. They have a wide variety and the pumpkins and are .75 a pound. I bought all these pumpkins for $42.
