What’s your favorite kind of cheese?
My favorite kind of cheese varies with my craving of the day, but typically I’d have to go with brie or cheddar (sharp!).
Today I enjoyed a cheesy ‘dilla (aka quesadilla) break-room style (aka microwaved) featuring sharp cheddar cheese melted in a folded-over whole wheat pita.
This is one of my go-to snacks, but I enjoyed it for lunch today with a hot mug of Progresso French onion soup in the free mug I received from the company on Tuesday.
I figured today was a good day to break into one of the bazillion cans of soup I received from Progresso, and thought French onion would be a great place to start since it’s one of my favorites.
I was really impressed by the amount of onions in the soup! It was really tasty and full o’ the yummy veggie. I only wish the sodium content was lower (690 mg per serving… eek).
Sorry about the dark pictures… the sun was shining and I couldn’t get the lighting to work with me!
Also, as a side note, my lunch pictures (and likely many of my breakfast pictures) will be taken with my old point-and-shoot camera, not the new fancy, schmancy DSL camera since I don’t want to look like some kind of a tourist at work. 🙂

I haven’t ever tried brie—crazy huh? Im pretty conservative when it comes to cheese. I need to branch out a bit!

I think that my favorite cheese is brie or goat cheese. Over the holiday I made a Brie en Croute (Brie baked in puff pastry with some apricot preserves inside). It is pretty much heaven!!

I love brie baked in a pastry crust with some fig jam on the side…heavenly!

Your quesadilla looks tasty! Personally, I would add some Romaine lettuce to bulk it up and make is crunchy! 😉
I really like Kraft 2% sharp cheddar cheese singles (classy, I know) and I looove Laughing Cow light swiss cheese wedges (I can eat them by themselves!). I eat cheese at least twice a day!
Alison says
P.S. I completely forgot…I am also a huge fan of grated Parmesan cheese!!
Your new camera looks amazing by the way!

That cheese looks so good! I had a great blend from Cowgirl Creamery last night… don’t know what it’s called, but it was amazing!
Ally (Sweet & Savory) says
Can you believe I have had a quesdilla for lunch the last 3 days? Also, one of my go to meals. Then I top it with my “snob salsa” (featured on my blog last week) – it can’t be beat!
Tina says
That would be funny to have that camera at work. Do people ever notice you taking pictures of your food and wonder about it? I just thought of that. LOL
And my fave cheese is blue cheese. Mmmm!!! I HATE that you can’t have it when pregnant. I have to give up many of my favorite things when I’m preggo and it bums me out. Not there again yet, but maybe soon 🙂
jqlee says
Brie is my favorite too!! It’s such a splurge though 🙁
I also LOVE goat cheese which is not splurgy at all! It’s so light and creamy and spreads like a charm. And the subtle flavor goes perfectly on crackers. Whole wheat of course 🙂
