VV Grilled Cheese



When your girls ask for grilled cheese and you have a spare chicken cutlet on hand, you end up with a VV grilled cheese for yourself!

What’s VV? Well, the bread’s shape reminded me of a cartoon whale, which reminded me of a whale logo… and then VV.

Typically I like grilled cheese sans tomato, but I think it might belong in here next time around!

This bread is from The Italian Bread shop in Springfield, MA.

Reheating Penne Typical


Penne Typical is a delicious local dish from Typical Sicilian Ristorante.

When you bring it home and reheat the leftovers, it’s just not the same.

Fortunately, it is easy to bring it closer to the original flavor by adding a little bit of Teriyaki sauce.

Two things to consider:

  • The sauce is going to separate, which is normal.
  • The pasta is going to be soft, which is normal.

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
    Tip: Convection preferred!
  2. Put leftover Penne Typical into an oven safe dish
    Tip 1: Microwave for 30-45 seconds or microwave just the dish for 60-90 seconds
  3. Cover with aluminum foil
  4. Bake 12 minutes
  5. Remove foil
  6. Bake additional 3-5 minutes
  7. Remove from oven
  8. Add 1 tsp of teriyaki sauce per serving and stir well
    Tip: The key is to add the teriyaki after cooking, it will have a stronger impact on the taste.
  9. Top with grated cheese
  10. Enjoy!

Reheating a 4 to 8 ounce Cheeseburger

Reheated Cheeseburger, BBQ Chips

Ever thought burgers were tough to reheat? This is our favorite way to reheat a cheeseburger.

  1. If the burger is in a bun, remove it.  It’s best to toss the bun and use a new one if you have more. If you don’t have a spare you can toast or microwave the current one for 15 seconds separately from the cheeseburger.
  2. Splash a little water in a microwave-safe bowl or container, enough to form a puddle but not enough to cover the entire bottom.
  3. Put the cheeseburger in the bowl and cover loosely.
  4. Microwave for 45 seconds covered.
    Steps 5 and 6 are recommended, but optional.
  5. Put another piece of cheese on top.
  6. Microwave another 15 seconds.

This will turn your cheeseburger into a delicious steamed tasting version of a cheeseburger. It can also be used if you grill burgers ahead of time and then
want to cook them fast.
