{ Rosemary Garlic Cheese Straws }
Secret Recipe Club
Every month, around the same time of the month, I get to blog about a new recipe that I've found through the Secret Recipe Club. Sometimes it's a new recipe that I've never heard of before and sometimes it's a recipe that I've been checking out for a while and now have an excuse to make it.
But I must ask, why is it that when the 3rd week of every month rolls around, when I am searching the blog that I have been assigned to, why is it that I am always looking for something that my husband will love?!?! It drives me nuts and I don't normally even realize that I've done it until I'm at the store picking up what I need or until BigBear ask "What are you making for Secret Recipe Club this month?", and I answer with "I'm making _(whatever it is), I picked it cause I thought you'd like it." AHHH! WHY! I do the same thing when I'm shopping. I'll go into a store with the intention of buying something for me and come out with tons of stuff for hubby instead. He must have me brain washed or something.
So as I was looking through The Ginger Snap Girl's blog after getting my Secret Recipe Club assignment, I stumbled across this Mushroom and Herb Chunky Tomato Sauce, these Sun-dried Tomato BLT Bites and this Strawberry Cream Cheese Crumble Tart. All of these would have totally made it to the top of my list.... until I saw Rosemary Cheese Straws and thought to myself "ooo hubby would love those", so you know what I decided on making? Obviously the cheese straws haha.
They were crispy and so tasty! And for some reason they kept disappearing off of the cooling sheet at an alarming rate while I was preferring the second batch. Who ever could have been munching on them.... I wonder... ;)
