Spaghetti Meatballs Recipes

spaghetti meatballs recipesThis is one of the fastest quick dinner recipes in our list of spaghetti meatballs recipes. You are eating a delicious spaghetti within 30 minutes!

Of course you need the fastest cooking spaghetti you can find, although a normal ready in 10 minutes spaghetti will do fine as well.

The secret of this spaghetti meatballs recipe lies in the use of Italian sausages (or any sausage in your butcher’s shop that you think will taste delicious in a spaghetti)

Spaghetti Meatballs Recipe

Bring water to the boil for cooking your spaghetti.

Cut 1 onion in slices and start frying in oil in a non-stick pan.

Get the sausages out of their skin and make then into meatballs. Add them to the onions in the pan.

Cut 1 or 2 long red chilies and add to the pan.

As soon as your water boils, add the spaghetti (just put them in according to the time they need to cook and the time you still have left in your 30 minutes…).

Dice 3 fresh organic tomatoes, add 3 cloves garlic, some tomato paste, a small teaspoon of rock-salt or sea-salt (the tastier, the better) and add water until you have about half a liter (1 pint). Mix in a blender and add to the pan. Bring to the boil as fast as you can. Meanwhile get yourself a piece of bread, put some mustard on 1 side and add to the pan.

Let boil on a low fire for 20 minutes and serve with your spaghetti.

Peach Smoothie Recipe

What to do with peaches from the shop…

peach smoothieThis fruit smoothie recipe uses fresh peaches, and is a welcome idea to use the peaches from an abundant peach harvest if you have peach tress yourself in the garden. Yet it’s even a better idea when you just bought peaches from the shop: peaches that are a little bit sour…

When peaches are very sweet, then better eat them like they are! Or if you really want to make a smoothie with very sweet peaches: add some sourness with natural ingredients available like yogurt or sour oranges to keep your smoothie healthy.

If you do buy peaches from the shop: some peaches have little taste so don’t mix them with other fruit when making a peach smoothie to keep the peach taste in your smoothie!
