I get so frustrated when it comes to cooking dinner. It has got to be one of my least favorite things to do and I am just not good at it. I have about 2 dishes that I make that people actually like: my baked penne pasta dish (which even my dad likes and to me that is amazing!) and my pasta salad. Other than those, I am just a dud.
Lately I have made it my goal to make meatballs. I love meatballs that you get at bridal showers and other parties - swedish meatballs, sweet and sout meatballs, bbq meatballs, etc. I thought, how hard can it be to make some meatballs and serve them over noodles, even I can do that. Boy was I wrong....
A few weeks ago I decided to google and find a great swedish meatball recipe. I even went really easy and bought meatballs that all you had to do was heat up, how on earth can anyone screw that up? Well I screwed up by adding all the ingrediants right away instead of adding the sour cream at the very end. I threw it all away and started over. I was so proud of myself when it was done...until I took the first bite - it was awful!! I figured how hard could it be to combine cream of chicken soup, milk and sour cream...there was also nutmeg in there and that is what I'm told made it gross. So now I second guess myself and wonder if I didn't put the wrong spice in them.
Today I went to the store and bought meatballs again and a JAR of sweet and sour sauce - Again, I cook it all up in the crockpot and go to take my first bite and it is so spicey that I can barely eat it.
I so give up.....
