Make these rice balls with leftover Risotto, and serve as an appetizer or a light lunch with a tossed salad. They are easy to make, and everyone will love them.

Spane and Noelle are very good friends, and play together a lot. Her mother, Amber, and I sat down a few weeks ago and started making plans for the party. Amber is going to make a waterfall scene cake, and I told her I would make some pixies for it. I will be posting that when I make them made the Pixie wings, as the party is not for another 10 2 days, and now, I have made the pixies out of marzipan. But, we went to Michaels and got some great gifts to make for Noelle. You can view the album of pictures we took to see the completed projects.
Risotto with saffron and mushrooms is a real treat. The rice used is Arborio, from Italy, although most supermarkets carry it these days. Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world – but fear not. You can usually find very small amounts of saffron in markets like Trader Joe’s. Luckily you don’t need much.

These Fennel Pork Chops will remind you of Italian sausage. They have a lovely wine sauce and go beautifully with risotto. Enjoy them with a nice glass of Shiraz and an antipasto salad to start.
So, on Monday I am going on the Black Bean Diet. This is a diet that has worked for me in the past, and it worked for my father, too.
When my father’s friends heard that he had gone on a bean diet, they thought he was crazy. How could anyone lose weight eating beans? Well, it all depends on what you put IN the beans, and what you serve with the beans.

Chinese Five-Spice Tandoori Chicken with herb rice is an easy-to-make dinner ideally suited for the small NESCO cooker, the grill, or the air fryer.
Rosemary, garlic chicken wings made in the Nesco served with dual sauces make a great appetizer or snack.
