Meatball Marinara Sliders

These don't have to be for a party, they can be just for family. They are great with a bowl of soup, chips,, fries or any side dish you like.

Any of the slider recipes on the post today will be much enhanced with the addition of one or both of my favorite potato salads. I make awful potato salad so I had to go to an outside source. Both are wonderful.

You know I'm not much on pre-made food, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do when your "to do" list is longer than the hours in the day. Quick, easy and delish. The kids will love you.
