Soup and sandwich is a quick and easy dinner. There is something wonderful about crunchy toast and warm gooey cheese. I’ve been experimenting with my Rocket Grill. I promised to share recipes. These can be made in a frying pan, Rocket Grill, or panini maker.

I can’t wait to see how you do your menus in Google Calendar. I tried and well … mine don’t look right.

If anyone has Mac’s iCal you can do a menu in that. Then it’s right on my computer and I can put the shopping list in Stickies and print it right out for the store. If want me to share how just let me know. It’s easy and fast. Shalom!

I agree…paninis are SO GOOD! I don’t have a panini maker but use a regular saute pan and put a heavy pot on top to smash them down as they cook. So good!
