Sometimes adolescents lead to the best inventions. Our just turned 18-year-old son Kirby decided to cobble together some lunch recently. His invention was endorsed by his younger sister Skyler. It’s pretty simple to put together, or the concoction probably would have never happened.
Kirby was hungry and scrounging. Bologna is one of his staples. He likes to eat one slice before he takes his daily morning cross country run. It sounds weird but it works for him. That principle kind of applies to food: Use what works for you.
He took out some bologna and put it in the chopper to dice it up. Then he diced some lettuce. We had some leftover cheesy rice (Rice-a-Roni, easy to make) from the night before. He got out a soft tortilla and began lightly heating it in butter on the griddle.
The lettuce and baloney went on top of the tortilla, along with the cheesy rice, then he spread some extra grated mixed cheddar cheese on top of that, heating the bottom until crispy, then microwaving a few extra seconds to ensure the cheese was fully melted.
Amazing, I had made fresh salsa that week, and he put this on top as garnishment before folding and cutting in two. If the endorsement of two teenagers means anything, they may have created America’s greatest next dish. Try it out.
