Ricotta Meatless Meatballs with Sauce
“Polpette di ricotta al sugo”, as these are known in Italian, are meatless balls made out of ricotta cheese and homemade bread crumbs. Think meatballs, but without the meat! The soft balls are then simmered in a simple homemade tomato sauce. I like to serve these with a side of greens, such as broccoli rabe.

To much possesion yourself can lead to lot of eat , 2.00 AM snacking, and mindless eating and it’s for this mind that Riner encourages people to indulge in “fun” foods every once in a while.
Avoidance on late-night snacking and cravings , it is much important to include some easy foods (or what one may perceive as off limits ). Meaning , if we always order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, perhaps we really wanted the burger and should have just pleased it in the first place."
Because it comes to dinner , much eat or eating too much of the wrong item of food can lead to bad habit on sleeping. On the flip side, a meal that is not eating to much food than satiating not make leave you wanting more and resulting in reaching for an eat bad food late-night snack even closer to bedtime .
