One of Our Favorites!!


Does this or does this not make your salivary glands go into over-drive? I can't help but to look at this spread and want more! This has become one of our favorite things to do on a Sunday night. Not many restaurants are open on Sunday so this is a great reason to get creative with our "last moments together before the next work week begins" meal.

We have taken to riding our bikes on Sunday afternoons to get some exercise and discover more about Dusseldorf. There are some local bakeries open and usually a meat & cheese shop here or there. I love trying new meats and cheeses (as long as they don't smell funny!) and this particular showcase of meat and cheese was dazzling my taste buds. We got the Tomato Feta Salad from a local restaurant that makes mostly Greek foods. The pickles, meats and cheeses were from the street fair down on the Rhine River. Add to that the Ciabatta and Cheese Rolls with some locally made mustard and you have the "fixins" for a delicious German meal.

I can't even explain what a pleasure this meal is...no cooking, easy clean up, formed to our liking and leftovers area snap! Hope you'll give this a try...OH! And here's a link to a company that will deliver frozen European Rolls and Bread (still in dough form) to your door. You simply freeze them until you're ready to bake and then pop them in your oven after thawing. You really need to experience German Rolls to appreciate the tastiness of these sandwiches!! Enjoy
