Sizzler Toast



This is what we call Sizzler Toast because it is similar to the bread they serve at Sizzler.

It is best on Texas Toast (bread) or an artisan bread (slightly crispy on outside) but regular bread works too.

Butter both sides of the piece of bread I use a tub butter because it is easier to spread. Place in a non stick pan or non-stick griddle. Sprinkle top heavily with parmesan cheese (just the cheap kind in a green can). Flip over (before the bottom is cooked). Sprinkle other side (was the bottom, now the top) with parmesan. Allow bottom to cook until cheese is brown and toasty. Flip over and cook until cheese on 2nd side is brown and toasty.

If the parmesan flavor is too strong...just do one side, or sprinkle more lightly next time. But we like a lot!

Tortillas


My favorite tortillas are the raw ones that you cook yourself. But as far as ones that are already cooked I like the Don Julio Original.

Snack time

I really don't buy snacks or treats hardly at all. This is something my kids like to have for a sweet snack. I call them cinnamon roll-ups. Warm a tortilla in the microwave for about 20 seconds. spray one side with spray butter (like I can't believe it's not butter) sprinkle quite a bit with a cinnamon/sugar mixture. Roll up and enjoy.

Resurrection rolls

From Kristie D.

1 pkg crescent rolls
regular (not mini, not huge) marshmallows
melted butter
cinnamon/sugar mixture

Place 1/2 to 1 marshmallow inside each crescent roll before rolling up. Seal edges (to seal marshmallow in. Roll in meted butter. Roll in cinnamon sugar. Bake according to roll directions.

These rolls have Easter symbolism. The marshmallow is Jesus being wrapped in linens (dough). They used oil (butter) and spices (cinnamon and sugar) on his body. They placed him in the tomb (oven) and when they checked back on Him 3 days later he had disappeared (risen). (The marshmallow will disappear when baking.
