Make Hot Italian Cheese Balls for dinner and a breakfast frittata the following morning. One ingredient to go between two recipes! The spices and cheese combine perfectly to add some kick as the cheese oozes out of the warm dough.  

One of the things I love about this recipe is that it can be used as an appetizer or a meal on its own when paired with a salad. AND everyone loves them!  purchasing Tyson products in bulk at Sam’s. Finding amazing meals that I know everyone will love is key, but so is saving time.

By saving time preparing and making meals, I can spend more time with everyone and savor every moment of our time together making memories.
