Getting really into this blogging thing


Thirteen Things That Carli Loves About Cheese



1…. I love grilled cheese sandwiches, with thick bread and several types of cheese, and sometimes bacon.

2. I love pizza where the cheese is salty and melts in your mouth. I had such a slice tonight.

3. I love macaroni and cheese, especially the mac and cheese I made from scratch using Alton Brown's recipe.

4. I love little platters of cheese and crackers and grapes. This was maybe my favorite thing about Disney's All Star resorts.

5. I love chicken parmigiana, where you think you've eaten it all, and then you notice another piece hidden under a sea of melted cheese and marinara sauce.

6. I love cheesecake, especially really well made cheese cake that doesn't taste chalky and isn't compromised by sugary fruit topping.

7. I love linguini with just a little olive oil, garlic, and grated parmesan.

8. I love mozzarella sticks that aren't too oily.

9. I love a basic cheese sandwich--two pieces of BREAD, cheese, tomato, mustard, maybe a couple of pickle slices.

10. I love goat cheese salads, especially the one from Pita Grill with the dried cranberries.

11. I love spinach and feta omelettes.

12. I love going to classy parties where they have one of those cheese boards with a built in slicer, with a classy cheese and crackers built to stand up to it.

13. I love the taste of a perfectly juicy steak burger with a hunk of cheddar or jack melted on top.

Oooh, things that will make me huge. Love this list.

I now have the strong urge to make my 3rd Heirmloom Tomato and Fresh Mozzarella salad. Yummy, LOVE the stuff. And if I blow up so I can't get through my front door I'm blaming you for tempting me with that mac & cheese recipe.

Michele sent me today. Or rather she sent you to me and then I just had to come check you out.

I love extra old cheddar grated and melted over tortilla chips and salsa and topped with sour cream. Excuse me, but I think I'm going to make that now...

Michele sent me.

Mmmm....cheeeeeeese... (although I will admit that when I didn't eat ANY dairy for almost a year, I never got sick. I really don't think we humans were made to eat/drink cow products.)

That said, mmmmmm cheeeese...

Here via michele!

Panthergirl said...

OH TOO FUNNY.... my pal Plain Jane said the same thing as me...

Thumper said...

Here via Michele's. Thanks for making me crave something... LOL

Why am I suddenly so hungry?

utenzi said...

Carli, I'll agree with you on everything but the cheese cake. I've never liked those. But salty goat cheese, especially in bruchetta, is worth killing for! God but it's good! Oh, and I've got this great lasagna recipe that is just out of this world. I've never tried Brown's Mac&Cheese recipe but I'm willing to give it a try...
