I have said it and I will say it again. I love potatoes. They are tasty, filling, and go great with cheese. A couple of days ago I posted Braised Short Ribs. They were delicious and created some of the tastiest gravy that I have ever had. What goes great with gravy? Potatoes. What goes great with braised short rib gravy? Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes.
They were creamy and delicious. They had just enough goat cheese to taste the cheese without overpowering the potatoes. Amazing!!!

After a long weekend of being in Airports I wanted a nice and hearty meal. So I searched around and came across a nice and easy Ravioli recipe from Giada. The recipe does not require you to make pasta and it includes some of my favorite ingredients such as; mushroom, spinach and marscarpone cheese.
Homemade Ravioli
Top with your favorite marinara sauce and some freshly grated cheese and you have a meal.
Yesterday I made homemade Tomato Soup. Nothing pairs better with Tomato Soup than a grilled cheese. I wanted to create the ultimate grilled cheese. To do that I had to take a trip to the supermarket. I wanted a nice thick crust so I started with a Rustic Wheat Bread. Hand sliced to perfection. Then I picked up the only ripe tomato available in all of DC. Finally I spent a little time in the cheese department. The base was Mozzarella. Great flavor and melts wonderfully. Next came the nice cured Manchego cheese. This sheep’s milk cheese melts great when shredded and has an amazing creamy texture and a slight salty taste. Perfect for a grilled cheese. Finally came the Gruyere. A cow’s milk cheese that has a great texture and flavor that works well with the other cheeses used in this Ultimate Grilled Cheese.

I love grilled cheese and this is the best I have had.

Yesterday I reviewed “I’m just here for MORE FOOD” and there was a recipe for Cheesy Poofs. Yes, those cheesy staples of Eric Cartman from South Park. So I had to try them. They are amazing. Not quite the cheddar ones that have the cheetah on them, but they are tasty none the less. This is the ultimate cheap eats. Making snacks at home can save you a ton of money. Plus, you know what goes into each snack, so they are good for the kids.
Below I have included Eric’s ode to Cheesy Poofs.
I love cheesy poofs almost as much as Cartman, although I have never written a song about them.
