I love food. I love all aspects of food. I love making my meal plans for the week. I love prepping my dinners. I love the cooking process. And of course I love eating.
Last night, I made a delicious meal from a Rachael Ray cook I was given a few years ago. Honestly, I don't use my RR cookbook often and it has more to do with my dislike of her as a person than anything else. Her whiny voice, her annoying mannerisms, her scrunchy face- she just gets on my nerves.
That being said I made her Balsamic Chicken Cutlets over Spinach Salad. It was amazing. One bite in and Jeff said it was one of his favorite meals. The chicken had the right amount of season to it, the homemade dressing coated the spinach perfectly. All in all it was one terrific meal.
Which brings me to the point of my post. My favorite simple meal: The Grilled Cheese Sandwich. I know what you are thinking. Grilled Cheese is a kids meal. Ah, not so my friend. Not so at all. Grilled Cheese is for EVERYONE. There are tons of ways you can dress up your grilled cheese sandwich and make it "Adult".
If you get a chance check out the menu over at The American Grilled Cheese Kitchen. My goal is to make each one of those sandwiches!
Right now my favorite is sourdough bread (with a little garlic salt in the butter), Cabots Extra Sharp White Cheddar, 2 thick slices of tomato, 2 slices of crispy bacon and a little pesto smeared on one piece of bread. Mmmmmmmm!
