imagine this

a pizza and grilled cheese have a baby. sure it’s a stretch, but hang in there with me. i imagine it’d end up looking like the cousin of a calzone… maybe the half-sibling of a ham and cheese sandwich.

“that’s ridiculous, eric” you say. well, yes, you’re right.

“why would you even think about something so absurd?”

well i’ll tell you…


when i get packages here, they’re often filled with delicious surprises. in my birthday package from my parents was all the stuff to make some homemade pizzas. after the pizzas were eaten (it didn’t take long) i had only used about 1/3 of the pepperonis i’d been sent. now comes the time to get creative. seriously…i can’t let good pepperonis go to waste.


then i got to thinking. i took some fresh, sharp cheddar, some good bread, a little oregano-ish seasoning… okay, okay... so it was a domino’s pizza seasoning… i’ve got limited resources here… added pepperonis and cooked up two delicious grilled pizza sandwiches!


i cut it into "triangles" for illustrative purposes, but i think it made it taste better. something to do with 3rd grade memories i'm sure


mmm… i think i’ll do it again some day soon.


and on a very different note, this reminds of the classic movie… or I think it should be a classic, but hardly anyone has seen it… Hot Rod! near the end of the movie and grilled cheese and a taco battle it. let’s just say the grilled cheese wasn’t as successful in the movie




and just for fun
here's a picture of me dressed up as Hot Rod a couple years ago for halloween.


the hair was fake, but the mustache was real. because as Rod would say, "All great men have mustaches, Frank."
