A Vegan Italian Feast in Idyllwild The Best Vegan Arancini's, Meatballs, Marinara and Caesar Salad

Took a wonderful little trip up to Idyllwild with a few friends just to unwind, quarantine together lol, cook and just enjoy being somewhere else for a bit. We had an amazing weekend filled with food and laughter. I made dinner Saturday night which included these amazing arancini balls stuffed with mozzarella and parsley they were to die for! I made those ahead of time in the 2 part video then frozen them put them in the oven and they were just as delicious as they were fresh out of the fryer! To accompany the arancini balls I made a simple yet delicious tomato sauce, a classic caesar salad, and impossible meatballs. SOOOO delicious. Those weren't on the original menu but they were on request by the birthday girl so we added them last minute to the menu.
