Pretty Yummy Lunch

Sometimes, I just create recipes with what i have in the house. It started with leftover zucchini, so I baked it with bread crumbs and parmesan. This itself turned out delicious enough, but I went further and decided I needed a dipping sauce. We are our of marinara, so I whipped up a creamy pesto sauce from a packet I had in my spice drawer forever. I put the pesto on top of some French bread ends (that I ended up throwing out from freezer burn), and drizzled the sauce over the zucchini. Yum! I'm glad I have one more zucchini left and extra sauce to make this again.

Bread, Cheese, Cheese, Cheese, Bread

Over Christmas Vacation, I got to spend the day with some of my favorite little ones, Braden and Kayla. (And their mom, Jill)
We went to the Children's Museum in the morning, and then Melt for lunch.
My newest Melt Inductee, Braden
I was explaining the Macaroni Melt to Braden and Kayla on the ride, how it was basically Mac and Cheese surrounded by cheese on a sandwich.  Braden, quickly renamed the sandwich, Bread, Cheese, Cheese (meaning mac n cheese), Cheese, Bread.  Naturally!
Braden and his Bread, Cheese, Cheese, Cheese, Bread Sandwich!
So, we had to get the special sandwich, after gobbling up an order of the Tofu Wings.  I think I officially have a new Melt buddy, as Braden already wanted to come back and try some other sandwiches!

Braden, anytime you want to go eat cheesy sandwiches, I'm with you, my friend!
