What's for Dinner?

Sometimes Justin sends me music links, and he has a pretty good idea of what songs I might like, so I'm always grateful for his thoughtfulness. Other times he sends me links to recipes, but I think he might have a slightly different motivation with these. The recipes are interesting, but I think they are things that he would like. I almost always tell him that I'll make whatever the latest recipe is for him when he's home next, especially because this is a young man that dislikes cooking enough that he complains if he has to make spaghetti. Here are a few of the most recent ones.

Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs - I rarely make food that has "Bombs" in the title or that calls for refrigerated biscuit dough, but I did try these. I thought they were a bit too much work, but the taste was okay. I think I would prefer to just make decent full-sized bacon cheeseburgers instead of bombs.

Bacon Wrapped Cheesesteak Meatloaf - I haven't made this yet, but am seriously considering it. I'm a little unsure about how fiddly this will be and wonder how frustrated I'll get trying to roll everything up, but I'm willing to give it a try. 

Pickle Egg Rolls - I thought this one was a joke when Justin sent it, but when he said "Looks really good to me! It would be awesome if you made them!", I figured this might be food that only a 24-year-old could love. I like the ingredients separately, but together and fried, they honestly sound a little repulsive to me.

I don't know if Justin will be able to be here for Thanksgiving, but if he is, we may be having Pickle Egg Rolls as an appetizer. That's why I searched two different grocery stores for what seems to be an "exotic" ingredient around here and now have a pound of egg roll wrappers in my refrigerator. Never let it be said that I don't love my son; I'm even willing to fry cheese and bacon-stuffed pickles for him!
