Screamin' Sicilian Nacho Cheese Loaded Breadstix


My wife and I decided on spaghetti for dinner last night and, while in the breadstick section of the grocery store, I came across this product. It was $6.99, but I had just gotten paid so I figured I would give them a try.

Overall, I would have to say it was at least a unique option. The breadsticks were loaded with beef, nacho cheese, jalapenos, tomato and onion. They had a decent flavor with a bit of a kick and not too spicy and were definitely different from the normal garlic bread sticks or cheesy bread we would normally buy.

The bread sticks were easy enough to make. I just needed to remove the outer wrapping and put them in the oven for about 30 minutes. They even come in their own baking dish, so you don't need to dirty any pans. The box is a bit misleading about the size of the bread sticks but that wasn't too big of a deal since we ended up just eating them as five bread sticks rather than nine since they were stuck together by the cheese anyway, which made them about as large as they appear on the packaging.

These are, as you might imagine, somewhat filling. So, I'm not so sure I would use them as an appetizer or complementary item again. I do think they would make an excellent snack though, especially during a movie or football game.

Final Opinion: They are a little pricey compared to other bread stick options, but I thought they were worth the extra money and, under the right circumstances (such as a Green Bay Packers game) I would consider buying them again.

My Grade: A

Kwik Trip Kitchen Cravings Tailgater Pizza

Image
  When my wife and I decided on pizza for dinner last night, I stopped at Kwik Trip with the intention of just buying a cheap, frozen, cheese pizza for our daughters since we already had another pizza in our freezer. However, as I was walking up to the checkout counter, this particular pizza caught my eye and, even though I wasn't crazy about spending $8.99 when I already had another option at home, I was intrigued enough to make the purchase anyway. We ended up making the pizza in the oven when I got home. After trying it, I have to say it is one of my favorites. One of the things, in particular, that really stood out for me when it came to this pizza was the toppings. The combination of sausage and cheese curds was both unique and delicious, especially since the curds were fresh enough to still squeak when we were eating them. The pizza also proved to be surprisingly filling, both because of the thicker crust and the generous amounts of toppings and cheese.  Normally, when my wi
