KITCHEN ADVENTURES: CHEESE SALES. I really need to learn that “on sale” is not the same as “cheap.” Nonetheless!

First of all, I stuffed these cute little Mexican sweet peppers with Gruyere. Basically, I just snipped off both ends of a lot of peppers, stuffed ’em with wodges of Gruyere, rubbed olive oil on the peppers, and roasted them in a 375 oven for a while–I forget how long–stirring once. This was delicious, but I had expected the peppers to be kickier. Instead they were sweet and even kind of bland. Jalapeno matchsticks (stuffed into the peppers with the Gruyere) would have been a big help… but jalapenos are never on sale.

And then there were two variations on lazy man’s macaroni and cheese: one with asadero (yum–a little tart) and one with Wensleydale (amazing!–total melty comfort food).

Later in the week, there should be a report on snails. Why were snails on sale? …Oh, and real posting very soon, people. For now you just get links and cheese.
