Easy Taco Meatball Salad

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Today’s Weekday Wednesday recipe is short, sweet, and oh so good – this because I’m on holidays and enjoying most of my days at the beach – leaving little time for cooking and blogging.

As such, I’ll be taking some time off and won’t return to the blog until next Tuesday.

To tide you over I thought I’d share some Kitchen Witch classics from the archives that I hope you enjoy.

Until then, how about an amazing salad that Mr. Kitchen Witch says is his favourite!
