Hmmmm....favorite? Maybe a homemade marinara with plenty of fresh, homegrown basil? Oooh, or maybe olive oil, tons of garlic, and spicy red pepper flakes? Um, but then there's the all day simmerin' meat "gravy." Yea, I can't pick just one. :-)

If you live near a Houston's, that would be my first choice! Their Hickory Burger is really good......

Hey.....I'm Stacy. I live outside of DC. I'm in the radio biz. I do 4 daily shows, heard locally and on satellite radio (both in the U.S. and overseas). My major passion is anything food/cooking/baking related. I spend a good part of my day online reading food blogs and anything to do with crappy reality tv (hopelessly addicted to that, too).

Love Serious Eats!! Great site!

There is a cookie that I am in love with from Whole Foods. It's called a Chocolate Chewie and it's low fat (yea, I KNOW!). It sounds similar to what you are talking about, but without walnuts. It's really good......

Yea, I have to agree with a lot of other comments.....I, too, got the Cuisinart Griddler for Christmas and I love it. I can't compare it to others, since it's my first...BUT....I have made numerous paninis so far, with excellent results. The true test for a good panini is the bread, I think. Get good bread, and you're set!

I have also grilled chicken and veggies on it and used the griddle for pancakes and bacon. All in all, very pleased!

Confession to make: I have lived in Maryland the majority of my life and have NEVER had a NY Bagel. Never! What's a good Jewish girl like me to do? Suffer through drab bagels my whole life. I lOVE bagels and lox. And, bagels and whitefish salad. And, bagels and smoked sable. And, the halevah thrown in reminds me of my late Gma Irma. Yum. Pick me.

I love roasting veggies.....get's them nice and caramelized. Totally transforms the flavor. Not the same mushy, soggy veggies that Mom used to serve me growing up!!

Either a piping hot bowl of "Vietnamese Penicillin," other wise known as Pho.....

OR

Beef Drunken Noodles.....something about the slimey noodles that I love so much!!!

I just created this Google Group, and I hope you will join in to take some inspiration/give some inspiration! I think that the hardest part about cooking is really DECIDING what to make each day. The concept part. So, I thought a MENU SHARE would inspire others! Please join my group, and post away...please!
