Sunday cooking

I had some of my sauce and homemade ricotta gnocchi in the freezer. That would have been enough for dinner, but I came across the "Big Turkey Meatballs" recipe in Mario Batali's Molto Italiano cookbook. They are fantastic meatballs. I recommend them highly. Best part, I had leftovers for later in the week.

Tonight, I was excited to make "Seafood Gumbo" and unfortunately, I was disappointed by the recipe. I found it to be bland. I even added sausage. Then I added creole seasoning and hot sauce to the leftovers. When you try recipes, you have to expect that some will not be good. When you have cooking skills, you can sometimes make the recipe better.
