For tonight I prepared meatballs stuffed with prosciutto, bechamel sauce, and cheese.
The ingredients of the meatballs are the same as the classic Italian meatballs with eggs, grated cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic.
How many times have you asked yourself: what do I cook for dinner tonight? Often, due to lack of time, we always end up preparing the usual things to eat or after ten, twenty years of cooking, or even more, sometimes ideas start to run out.
I usually cook lunch and dinner and try to always prepare different recipes.
So, to find a little inspiration for some dishes, I read cooking magazines, or food blogs, I browse the most beautiful photos of food … and then readjust the dishes according to my tastes or those of my family especially my son and my husband who is very demanding.
My son Andrea even though he was born here in Philadelphia as a taste requirement is very Italian.
