Tasty Thursday

There are so many easy and tasty recipes in one of the newest additions to our 101 series, you're bound to be surprised! The seasons of spring and summer bring many days of barbecuing with them. The first recipe you should try this season is from 101 Things To Do With Meatballs by Stephanie Ashcraft. I hope you enjoy!




Caesar Meatball Kabobs
18 frozen, fully cooked meatballs, thawed
1 medium yellow or green bell pepper, seeded and cut into 12 equal pieces
1 large or 2 small summer squash, cut into 12 (1 1/2 to 2-inch) slices 
12 whole mushrooms
12 cherry tomatoes
1/2 cup Caesar dressing
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

On a long metal skewer, thread a meatball, bell pepper slice, squash slice, mushroom, and tomato. Repeat pattern ending with a meatball. Repeat for 5 more skewers. Combine Caesar dressing and black pepper. Place meatball skewers directly on a hot grill. Baste the kabobs with the dressing. Grill for 6–8 minutes, turning and basting every 2–3 minutes until done. Makes 6 kabobs.

Note: If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes prior assembling kabobs.
