Gouda ‘Dilla

I am convinced that cheese can make any dish taste even better. Spaghetti = better with cheese. Tacos = better with cheese. Ice cream = better with cheese. πŸ˜‰

Okay, maybe cheese doesn’t enhance every dish, but it is gosh darn delicious!

On Sunday I bought a pack of Gouda cheese to broaden my cheesy horizons. I love the intense flavor of this cheese. It really does add a lot to a sandwich, or in the case of my lunch, a quesadilla.

Quesadilla

I made a microwavable quesadilla with the following items:

  • Whole wheat tortilla
  • Gouda cheese
  • Kidney beans
  • Broccoli

Pre-Folded 'Dilla

I meant to pack salsa, but I forgot. Boo! Even salsa-less, it was quite yummy.

For dessert I enjoyed a small box of the traditional Valentine’s Day candy, Sweethearts!

Sweethearts

What’s your favorite color Sweetheart candy?

My favorite hearts have always been the pink and the white hearts. They’re the best! (Oranges are pretty good, too.)

Snack in a Snap

Today’s mid-morning snack came together in a (ginger)snap!

Gingersnap Yogurt

I topped a cup of Fage Greek yogurt with four small gingersnap cookies and added a little sweetener before digging in. So delish!

Time to pack up my work station… We’re moving floors today! So long window view… 😦

  2. Would you believe I don’t like those Valentine’s candies? Too sweet!

  3. I like the purple and the orange hearts!! I do not like the white ones…

  4. I’m with Kelly, I don’t care for those valentine’s day hearts either!

    I’ll eat anything chocolate thought! πŸ™‚

  5. That quesadilla looks great! I’ll be making that next week for lunch!

  6. Im not big on those candies. But I like reading what they say.

    Youd be surprised, but ice cream can be good with cheese. Yes, Ive tried it. Grate up some apple and cheddar and its wonderful! So yes, I agree that cheese does make everything taste better. But Im a bit of an addict. I think there are 6 types of cheese in my fridge right now. None of which will have the chance to go bad.

  7. I would take your fage with a gingersnap cookie over the Valentine’s day hearts any day. Although put a heart shaped Reese’s in front of me and it’s over πŸ˜‰

    I haven’t had Gouda in forever…must pick some up!
