Lady and the Tramp Dinner

In light of Valentine's Day, we did a theme dinner to Lady and the Tramp!  

We had a fabulous, fancy dinner!  We had Shared Spaghetti and Meatballs, Lady's Caesar Salad, Garlic Bones, The Darling's Chianti, and Tony's Tiramisu! 

Our Shared Spaghetti and Meatballs:

I found an awesome recipe for the Meatballs that I tweaked a bit.  The original recipe can be found here! http://cookwithhoney.blogspot.com/2012/04/jens-incredible-baked-meatballs.html

Meatball ingredients:

1lb Hamburger

2 eggs

1/2 cup of Milk

1/2 cup of Panko crumbs

1/2 a medium large onion, diced

2 cloves of garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon of italian seasoning

1 teaspoon of salt

1/2 teaspoon of ground pepper

1/8 cup of minced basil

Meatball Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

Combine eggs and 1/2 cup of Milk with a fork

Add in hamburger, panko crumbs, onion, garlic, italian season, salt, ground pepper, and basil in a large bowl.  

Add in milk/egg mixture

Form into golfball sized meatballs

Place meatballs on a non-stick cookie sheet and put in the oven.

Bake for 30 minutes

Cook half a box of Spaghetti according to box instructions

Top spaghetti with meatballs, parmesan cheese and some Bertolli red sauce.

Caesar Salad ingredients:

Lettuce

Italian Croutons (store bought)

Parmesan Cheese

Paul Newman's Caesar Salad Dressing

Garlic Dog Bones were sooo easy to make!  I made them to directions on Pillsbury Crescent Rolls but I cut them in half and rolled them out.  I knotted them at the end and sprinkled some garlic salt on top.  

The Chianti was bought at our Albertson's for like $6.00.  I don't judge wine.  Wine is wine. And wine is good. 

The Tiramisu was also store bought and pretty dang tasty!  I put it on a serving tray and decorated it with chocolate syrup.

It was a very romantic way to start off our Valentine's week!
