September begins the slow slide into autumn, as apples ripen, tomatoes burst their seams, and peppermint plants make their play for garden domination. There’s an evening chill in the air and the scent of small wood fires replaces the blue smoke of barbeques.
But I don’t want to put the barbeque away just yet and the beautiful Gravenstein apples on my counter will wait another week as I ponder their destiny. Summer lingers in Seattle.
My husband’s birthday was yesterday and I promised him bacon-wrapped hot dogs. You won’t find meat featured on this site very often, but here they are, nestled in Rudi’s Gluten-Free Multigrain Hot Dog Rolls in all their greasy glory.
Rudi’s hot dog rolls and hamburger buns are spot-on. Hearty and full of multigrain flavor, these gluten-free goods hold up to piled-on toppings for dinner or quietly accept simple melted cheese as an afternoon snack. I love the chewy texture—it’s exactly what you’d hope for in a multigrain bun, never mind that it happens to be gluten-free. The only drawback to these rolls and buns is they seem a little on the dry side. That’s easily fixed by microwaving instead of toasting, though, and you’ll hardly miss the toasting. Give it a little brush over the grill’s flames. That’s what I did and they were delicious.
Interested in trying Rudi’s products yourself? I’m hosting a CONTEST with a free giveaway for one winner. The winner will receive two FREE loaf coupons and two Rudi’s sandwich boxes! To enter, please comment on this or my Pizza Crusts post with your most creative and delicious pizza topping. What pizza really makes your taste buds sing? Contest ENDS Tuesday, September 20, 2011, at 9pm Seattle (Pacific) time. I will judge the winner on the creative and skillful pairing of their flavor combinations.
I love a pizza with chicken, bbq sauce, onions, garlic and when it comes out some red pepper flakes
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza of all is a unique white pizza - goat cheese, leeks, pine nuts and dabs of fig jam. Savory with a hint of sweetness!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza is topped with a homemade honey bbq sauce, mozzerella cheese, spinach, pineapple, black olives, mushrooms, feta cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and crispy bacon. Delicious, especially the way my husband cooks the crust a bit first to crisp it a bit! We always use a gluten free thin crust mix, and he sometimes mixes herbs like basil or oregano into the crust itself.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza is a spinach pizza with double layers of spinach and mozzarella cheeses on top of olive oil, garlic, and pesto or Italian spices. Top it off with a little feta cheese and it is delicious! I am making myself hungry!
ReplyDeleteThe GF husband has been making tortilla pizzas for years. He takes a corn tortilla, tops it with conventional red sauce from a jar, raw onions and good Vermont cheddar. Puts it under the broiler and the whole house smells great!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite pizza topping combinations is a sundried tomato pesto sauce topped with thinly sliced yellow heirloom tomatoes, capers, chanterelle mushrooms, and goat cheese.
ReplyDelete...and lots of garlic and oregano, of course.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite pizza is a ricotta cheese base on Rudi's GF crust. Topped with steamed broccoli, grilled chicken, sometimes caramelized onions, and mozzarella. Finished off with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes. YUM!
