What if you could have cheese rolls, but be different! (.....hipster)
So, I recently saw these grilled cheese rolls on Care's Kitchen. My arteries screamed, my heart sang, but either way my body was making a whole lot of noise. These must be important.
But, such genius!! Simple, tasty, and what I've become to think of as the perfect soup dipper or munchie for the big parties. With that turkey/santa guy coming to town, it's good to have backups. Let's get real gang, I may just need these when ordering pizza online is just too much. Although, I can't resist the sweet sounds of the Domino's Soap Opera tracker guy. I mean, he is a charmer.
And, I think the most brilliant thing about these is that it's so easy to do, while still getting most ingredients from Walgreens! How cool is that? I mean Walgreens may have let me down in the past ("What do you mean that the Walgreen's chocolate wine isn't perfect????!?! ITS CHOCOLATE WITH WINE."), but here is it's shining moment.
I saw these, and thought, what variations of these could I make? Could there be some sort of fanciful version of these?
That's when the brain went into food OVERTIME.
The Smokehouse: Why hello Senor Bacon. Do you know Kevin?
Want to make these? Grab some crust-less bread, stuff them, roll, and cook!
All you have to do is pop them in the oven for 5 minutes, seam side down (as Care's Kitchen advises) at 350F. I also had some made in the microwave, very quick and easy (great for college kids).
NOTE: Not all need to be popped into the oven to be delicious.
Cheese Roll Ups and Soup Pairings Suggestions
- Smokehouse: Smoked House Cheddar, bacon ...... and maple syrup (As Mr. Takei says: Ohh myyy).

- Water. Lots and lots of water.
- The Bernie: American Slice, cooked elbow noodles, broccoli (optional)
- Tomato Basil
- The Philliy: American Cheese, Brisket

- (Don't worry guys, it's just a TV show reference)
I see you have a bug there. Let me ....eat it. (well, after you remove the picks)
As you see above, I have a serious team of experts working hard here at Witty Munch. There is Doctor Oscar, approving the American Cheese and Brisket Combo. Doctor Oscar got his doctorate at the Cici's Unviersity of Cheese and Flavor. He is one of my most trusted sources for food opinions. My other is The Boyfriend, and TB told me that his namesakes would be welcome at any time at his apartment.
But, as Dr. Oscar the Monster points out, you may need to use toothpicks! I used wheat, and it tends to be not as bendable. Don't worry! pop them into the microwave for 20 seconds, and they'll bend nicely.

With all of these photos, you notice that I used different breads, but all wheat. You're free to use any kind of bread, I'd suggest more white for easier rolling. However, you never know what flavor combos you'll make. Or eat.
Till later, make these. Your buds (of the taste nature) will thank you.
