Hey friends,
How is it Thursday already?! I guess with working a full day on Tuesday it feels like this week has flown by which is great because I’m always ready for the weekend though.
We have a full weekend ahead. I’m working on Saturday morning at the Magic and have my BFF’s baby shower too. Next weekend we are dedicating Parker at our church and I’m throwing a baby shower so we are prepping for those celebrations as well.
My mom is over today helping out with Parker and I’m cranking out some work and have a few nutrition clients to meet with at the office this afternoon. I’m so thankful for my mom’s help!
Is anyone gearing up for the SuperBowl already? If you’re having a party at your place or going to visit friends, bring these Slow Cooker Maple Meatballs to share with the gang. You will love the simplicity of this dish, and they will enjoy the sweet maple flavor!
I also love to meal prep this recipe for a quick weeknight dinner or grab and go lunches! Meatballs are delicious paired with rice or over top of a salad.
