Sounds yummy. Lately when I make grilled cheeses, I purposely make
extras, and I cook them in olive oil only. When it's time to have a
leftover, I put butter on them, warm a little in the microwave, and
they're yummy. My last batch was slow cooked ham and provolone cheese
on sourdough bread, all from the local Whole Foods.

I think the moral of the story is that a grilled cheese really can't
have too much cheese, butter, or oil on it or in it.

This isn't grilled, but you'll probably like it anyway.

Again, I have no translation to offer, so I'll just observe that you
seem to be mentally masturbating again.

None of yoose made that, it's stolen off the net.

I just bought a crusty loaf of 3 cheese semolina bread-supper tomorrow
night will be my usual grilled cheese and egg on this extra "yummy"
bread. (Normally I use two slices of light italian bread for 12 net
carbs.) I urge you to try liberally coating the buttered sides with
poppy seeds before frying.

I have never purchased ricotta before. The Food channel this weekend had
an italian favorites special-the spinach and ricotta ?gnudi? with
mushroom sauce looked so good.

Also, I enjoyed watching canolli being prepared step by step-I would
swear the chef has read our postings :-)

I've made the Giadia version of gnudi and it's delicious.

The roasted garlic and tomato ricotta cheese taste great. The garlic
added flavor enhances the entire sandwich.

Perhaps are you speaking of gnocchi gnudi or "ignudi" without
potatoes...only with ricotta cheese and spinach...?

That's the one I'm talking about. They call it "gnudi" over here. I
look at it as ravioli filling without the pasta shell.
