Italian Meatball Soup

December 5, 2014 By Shannah Coe 4 Comments

For years, we have always gotten together and decorated our Christmas tree with friends and family. I love sharing one of my favorite Christmas activities with those that I love. Of course, with out busy schedules, we often end up decorating the tree during dinnertime which means hungry stomachs come along with the Christmas cheer. I like to have something that is easier to make but also filling for everyone to enjoy in between hanging ornaments. One of my favorites is Italian Meatball Soup.

Chicken Parmesan Burger

June 25, 2014 By Shannah Coe 6 Comments

It’s grill time! That means lots of burgers, kabobs and maybe even a grilled dessert or two. I like to change it up whenever I can and break out of the burger routine. Of course, Mathlete is a burger fan so we don’t stray too far. I was craving Italian food one night but it was just too beautiful outside to ignore the call of the deck and grill. So, I combined them both with a recipe for a delicious chicken Parmesan burger.

Orecchiette Pasta with Sausage and Parmesan

November 27, 2013 By Shannah Coe 10 Comments

I love pasta.  Who doesn’t right?  It can be used in anything from a side dish or become a star in a main course.  I tend to skip the more traditional pasta in red sauce dishes though and look for ones that get most of their flavor from simple ingredients.  When I made orecchiette pasta with sausage and Parmesan, the freshness of the ingredients were where the dish got almost all of the flavor.  Yummy!

Mini Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf

October 3, 2012 By Shannah 48 Comments

I love the ease of preparing meatloaf! I don’t always love the amount of baking time required to bake a full meatloaf though so I usually try to bake it in much smaller portions.

Enter the meatloaf muffin! 


I’ve done them lots of times with my regular beef meatloaf recipe but today, I’m sharing my newest meatloaf fascination: chicken parmesan meatloaf! 

What you’ll need: 
1 lb ground chicken 
1 egg, lightly beaten 
1/3 cup panko breadcrumbs 
1 tsp olive oil 
2 cloves garlic, minced 
1 small onion, very finely minced OR grated 
1 tsp dried basil 
1/2 tsp dried thyme 
1 tsp dried oregano 
1/2 tsp salt 
1/2 tsp black pepper 
2/3 cup grated parmesan cheese, divided 
4 oz fresh mozzarella, cut into cubes 
1/2 cup marinara sauce 

Let’s make it!
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 12 cup muffin tin with cooking spray. 

2) In a small skillet, pour 1 tsp olive oil and heat to medium. Add onion and garlic and lightly sauté for 1-2 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.

3) In a large bowl, mix ground chicken, egg, breadcrumbs, onion mixtures, dried herbs, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup grated parmesan together. Gently mix with hands.

4) Fill each muffin cup about 1/3 full with meat mixture. Place one cube of fresh mozzarella in each muffin cup. Then, evenly divide the remaining meat mixture on top of the mozzarella.

5) Cover the top of each “muffin” with marinara sauce and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

6) Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until fully cooked.


What is your favorite type of meatloaf?
