Paleo Rosemary Meatballs and Tomato Sauce

Is it just me or am I an awesome cook?!? What? What? 
-- Trey, you can't answer that question, since you don't like healthy food. 
But everyone else feel free to drool over the awesomeness of this dish. 
PS: I posted the recipe at the bottom of this post. 
Paleo: Rosemary Meatballs & Hearty Tomato Sauce
Minus Trey, my family is really getting into this challenge. My mom is losing weight and now I have cousins asking about details. Come all! Seriously, if you want in, on the healthy action, drop me a comment and I'll add you to our FaceBook Page. Even Cheyenne is getting into paleo, she been begging me for fresh fruit all week.

GIRLS NIGHT
Last night, Serena had a dinner party at her house. GIRLS NIGHT! The theme was taco salad. Erin, who is also doing the challenge brought paleo friendly chicken. Speaking of Erin, homegirl has lost 4 lbs and counting. I'm impressed. You should've heard us last night talking about food. We were so excited about the idea of almond tortillas. Yeah, I don't know if it's even possible, but Erin says there is a recipe out there, so we shall see.

About the Dinner Party
Serena is expecting a baby in a few months. She had a dinner party and invited her close mommy-friends for advice about motherhood. We gave her the no frill answers...it was kind of like my come-to-Jesus talk, I had with Linda about Labor and Delivery. Ha! But seriously, the idea of a dinner party with your closest mommy-friends is a brilliant idea! I kind of wish I would've thought about that when I was pregnant.
