Tonight’s cooking adventure was Baked Chicken Meatballs and Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus.  I was heading to a pot luck dinner so I needed a few recipes I could bring.  I made the Chicken Meatballs found here:  http://dandydishes.blogspot.com/2011/06/baked-chicken-meatballs.html and the Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus Bundles here:  http://www.familyfreshmeals.com/2011/12/prosciutto-wrapped-asparagus.html.   See comments below for the modifications I made to each recipe.
