TERIYAKI MINI MEATBALLS

DIFFICULTY LEVEL: OY!
*
Who said meatballs have to be Italian and over pasta? Here is a fabulous recipe for a main course OR appetizer! (I prefer serving as an appetizer pricked with toothpicks)

**
  • 1 lb of ground beef or turkey
  • 1/2 cup of (Soy Vey) Teriyaki sauce
  • 1 teaspoon of Crushed (jar) Ginger

Easy Peasy.

Preheat the oven to 395.

Mix a 1/2 cup sauce and the teaspoon of ginger into the ground meat. Really work it into a thorough consistency.

On a tin foiled baking tray,
roll the meat into cute little meatballs.

After 15-ish minutes, depending on your oven, take out.

How to Plate:

Be Modern- On a crisp platter, arrange in a straight line and puncture with toothpicks.

Be Cozy- In a bowl, fill with mini meatballs. On the side, display a container of toothpicks.

HIP TIP - SESAME OIL


We know it's great in any recipe, salad or fryer--

Believe it or not, you can ALSO remove Waterproof Mascara with Sesame Oil!


Dab some oil on a cotton ball and wipe gently across your eye lids.


It's gentle on your skin and gets the job done.

Viola!

HOW TO CURE "MEN BLOCKERS" (WITH TURKEY LETTUCE CUPS)

DIFFICULTY LEVEL: OY! / OY VEY!
*
Men Blockers.

You know, the female version of cock blockers.
Women who block the hot guys from chatting with you on a night out on the town.

With friends like that, who needs enemies?


What will prevent these (dare I say) bitches from stepping on your toes when meeting guys?


I'm more concerned with how they could even THINK about stepping on your feet in those gorgeous pumps!


My inclination is to say they are envious of you.


The following recipe will make them even more envious! (It's also a great dish to shove in their mouths to shut them up.)
**
  • Head of lettuce
  • 1 lb of ground turkey
  • 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
  • Handful of carrots, chopped
  • Either olive/canola/ sesame oil
  • Soy sauce
  • Teriyaki sauce
  • Hoisin sauce

In a pre-heated pan on medium, spray your oil of choice. Cook the onions and carrots until soft and the onions are starting to brown. Take them out.

Re-spray your pan and cook your ground turkey. As it browns, break it up into small pieces with your spatula.

When the turkey is almost done, on the stove top, add equal dashes of Soy and Teriyaki sauces. Put a small teaspoon of Hoisin in there. Add the onions and carrots in and mix well. Give it a taste and add a dash of soy sauce if need-be.

Rinse your lettuce, spoon the mixture into the leaf, and enjoy!
This is a great appetizer or main dish.
