Spaghetti al Pomodoro

I want to BBQ this weekend and share some recipes on what to make I think it's best to make some delicious meals on the stove. Even though it's slightly warm outside in LA, the lack of sunshine makes me want to make spaghetti and meatballs. This spaghetti recipe is easy to make. If you want a fast meatball recipe, check out this one from Chef John at Food Wishes (not a gif, but who cares...it's so good).

Simple Roast Chicken

I'm definitely making this this weekend. Maybe throw in some bell peppers, onions and whatever kind of aromatics you have on hand. I like the Thomas Keller method of roasting where you hit the chicken on high (425-450F) for like 20 mins to get the browning and then drop the temp down to 350F for like an hour or until the bird has an internal temperature of 165F.

Apple Pie Bake

Apples are in season and this is a great way to use them up. I love that this recipe uses those frozen cinnamon roll packs. This is a simple and easy way to end the weekend right.

Keep those lungs smoke-free and happy cooking,

David
