Buffalo Wing Sauce Cheese, Panettone Milanese & Tikka Masala

These are my new food finds. I scored BIG this time:) At least by my standards! I found all of these at Costco:


First up is the Buffalo Wing Sauce Cheddar Cheese. Yummy! This stuff has habanero peppers, jalapeno peppers, cayenne peppers and I don't know what else in it. Very good and yes, it does kind of taste like the buffalo wing sauce. It is spicy but Quinn gobbled it up like a pro! Sydney was sleeping so didn't try any. We just sampled it on Ritz crackers but I'm going to try shredding it and putting it over chips for nachos and then will try melting it and eating it as a dip. That is if K.C. and Quinn don't finish it off before I can get to all of that!

Next up is the Panettone Milanese that I talked about in another post. The packaging is what really peaked my interest in this. It's an Italian Christmas tradition, the box says.

So basically, this is a sort of bread as I suspected. It's made with eggs, butter and flour (among other things) and has three days of leavening and eight hours of slow-paced cooling. It reminds me of french bread but kind of sweet. And it has candied citron peels and raisins baked in it. I really like it - K.C. and Quinn, not so much. Again, Sydney was in bed when I got home so hasn't tasted it yet. Here's a picture after I cut into it:

I hope Sydney likes it, otherwise I have A LOT of it to eat! But that's a challenge I'm willing to take on!

And lastly, I was so happy to find the Tikka Masala sauce too! The deli at work has some chicken Tikka Masala but this is the first time I've seen just the sauce. It's an Indian curry that is so yummy. I simmered some chicken in some of the sauce for K.C. and the girls and I steamed some veggies and simmered those in the sauce for me! I ate it over rice and even had some Naan in the freezer (from Trader Joe's) that I heated up and ate with it! What a great lunch!

My next finds are from Trader Joe's. An enchilada sauce and a Thai Red Curry sauce. Are you getting hungry yet?!

I link by going to the link I want, copying it then going back to my blog to post. Once you are posting you will see a chain link symbol--I think it is green? Highlight the words you want to link then click on the chain link symbol. Another window will pop up where you paste the link address that you copied. I hope I explained that well enough for you to be able to figure it out from there. Once you are done, the extra window will disappear and the words you highlighted will change color designating it a link.
