Do you ever get in food ruts? I do, constantly. I'm trying to keep myself and the farmer and kids from getting in those food ruts so we've been quite adventureous in our meals lately. Surprisingly with great success!
This morning I made a tomatoe-spinach-cheddar cheese egg scramble (lazy mom's omelette) with whole wheat toast. Quite yummy!!
For lunch the kids wanted grilled cheese. Our standard grilled cheese is colby-jack with jelly. Seriously, if you haven't tried jelly on your grilled cheese (grape or apple are our favorites), stop wrinkling your nose and give it a try...it's kinda like putting cheddar on your apple pie.
So to kick up our lunch a little, I jacked up the grilled cheeses. For the kids, I carmelized some thinly sliced apples in butter and a little apple jelly. For myself, I carmelized onions and apples in butter and a little apple jelly.
OH MY YUMMINESS.
Comfort food all jacked up. Can't beat it on a rainy fall day!

Oh goodness this sounds wonderful! I bet it would also be good with smoked gouda!
