Asian-Style Country Ribs

Serves: 4

2 lbs. country-style pork ribs
Pepper
1/4 c. teriyaki sauce
1/4 c. orange marmalade

Rub each rib with pepper. Place in a single layer in crock pot. Combine teriyaki sauce, marmalade, ketchup and garlic. Pour evenly over ribs. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours.

Tips: I love cooking country-style pork ribs in the crock pot because they always come out so moist and tender. They usually fall right off the bone. These were great served over hot, cooked rice. You can use the extra sauce in the crock pot to put over your rice. Serve this with some cooked veggies or a salad and dinner's served! If you need some other options for your country-style ribs, try Oven-Barbecued Ribs or Saucy Country Ribs.

Comfort Meatballs

Serves: 6

Meatballs
1 1/2 lbs. ground beef
3/4 c. quick oats
1 c. milk
2 T. minced onion
1 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper

2 T. oil
1/2 c. flour

Sauce
1 c. ketchup
2 T. sugar
3 T. vinegar
2 T. Worcestershire sauce
3 T. minced onion

In a large bowl, combine all meatball ingredients (excluding oil & flour); mix well. Roll into tablespoon-size meatballs and refrigerate for 30-45 minutes to firm. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Roll each meatball in flour and cook in the oil until light brown. Once they are browned, place them in a greased rectangular baking dish. In a small bowl, stir together sauce ingredients and pour evenly over meatballs. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until bubbly and hot.

Tips: These were delicious meatballs and are great over hot mashed potatoes or buttered noodles. If you like a lot of sauce then you might want to double the recipe although I felt this amount was adequate. I always find it easiest to mix meat with my KitchenAid Stand Mixer - it saves your arm the trouble. Also if you want a great new cookbook The Pioneer Woman Cooks has great recipes and beautiful pictures. It almost makes me want to ranch and have no cow experience whatsoever!

Tips: I was so glad to find a way to add some whole grains into a traditional sweet and highly refined breakfast. My whole family gobble down our oat waffles and they kept us full. If you prefer a more traditional waffle, try Easy Waffles.
