Four Foods on Friday meme #59

Looking for a fun meme to participate in on your blog? Stop on over to Val’s place and post your answers to this week’s questions by tomorrow! The more the merrier!

#1. What’s your favorite kind of roll?

I love Hawaiian sweet rolls or those little bake and serve rolls. The holidays wouldn’t be the same without those. If we’re out, O’ Charley’s rolls are the best and those oat and wheat bread that the Cheesecake Factory serves but a new favorite are the sourdough rolls at Haliimaile General Store on Maui. Those were awesome.

#2. Got a tip for keeping your cabinets or pantry organized?

I’ve got a few gadgets from The Container Store. I absolutely love that place and if you’re looking to organize it’s the only place you should look. I just wish some things were a little more reasonably priced. I always have to do some creative layouts to make everything fit in my tiny pantry.

#3. What’s your favorite kind of pastry?

Hmm, do cinnamon rolls count? They have to be the glaze on top NOT cream cheese icing. I know I’ll get flack for that but eating something that tastes like sugary feet is not my idea of scrumptious. A croissant with some Nutella on it is always good too.

#4. Share any original recipe.

Lazy Mexican Dip

1 can of chili (with or without beans)
1 jar of medium con queso
1 bag No Salt Tortilla Chips

Dump them together, microwave 90 seconds, dip chips. Told ya it was lazy! If you want it to look like you put more effort into it you can always cut up some jalapenos or scallions but if the least amount of effort possible is your goal, don’t bother! (I say no salt chips because there’s likely enough sodium in the 2 ingredients to shoot up the blood pressure of the person next to you as you eat yours. I suggest the Garden of Eatin’s No Salt Blue Corn Tortilla Chips.) Tip: Men, this is your chance to catch the eye of a chick at work with this dip to show you’re not just the “chip man”. Just put it in a microwave safe bowl and heat it up before a work potluck for 90 seconds and stir.

I love those rolls at the cheesecake factory! When Hubby i used to go there we’d always ask for a second loaf of bread when they delivered the first. LOL

I just had the best rolls last weekend - nothing fancy, just plain freshly-baked rolls with a whoppingly sinful blob of butter. Yum…

I haven’t been to Cheesecake Factory in ages. I need to go so I can have the rolls.

The dip might be lazy, but it sounds really good! I’m a sucker for processed cheese dips.

Hawaiian rolls are great. We always make little ham sandwhiches out of them. Yum.
