I know I say this a lot, but I only say it when I truly mean it…so I’m going to say it again…
Tonight’s dinner was absolutely amaaaaazing.
And if you guessed Panini was the menu item of choice, then you were right on target!
I took out the good ‘ol panini maker for tonight’s leftover chicken dinner. I tried to incorporate as many of my favorites into one sandwich, with the addition of a newcomer…but I’ll get to that in a sec.
On the side, I enjoyed the rest of my roasted broccoli. (I’ll definitely be making that again.)
Oh yes, and Cody also enjoyed some of his leftover chicken tonight, too.
So for my panini, I started out with some Farmers Market whole wheat bread, and piled it up with leftover roasted chicken, reincorporated sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, sautéed red onion, basil pesto, and one other secret ingredient…
The flavors on this thing were just incredible, and I’m pretty sure that I have this special secret ingredient to thank for that…
I’ve had this in the fridge since last week and have been dying to try it on something, so I knew tonight would be a safe bet.
Actually, last week, while I was browsing through Facebook, I happened to come across a “Question of the Day” that Chavrie was doing about your favorite way to enjoy goat cheese. Well, it turns out that they selected one random fan to win some fresh Chavrie, and guess who it was???

My favorite way to enjoy cheese is definitely a grilled cheese sandwich! SO many good combos :)
Kristi says
I love crumbling blue cheese on my salad… I could eat that everyday.
Courtney says
My favorite? That’s like asking a mother to choose her favorite child! I love cheese on just about everything, but I think my favorite way is crumbled goat cheese on pizza with olive oil, garlic, sauteed spinach and fresh tomatoes… I can’t wait for summer tomatoes to make this pizza again!
elizabeth @ the good life says
Cheese makes everything better. Got to have it on burgers, wraps, salad, and of course pizza and macaroni. Delish.
Sarah says
I’d love to add some cheese to a nice, big green salad! Yay to crumbled cheese!

I love goat cheese on anything…sandwiches, salads, pizza. But it is totally awesome in an omelet with some basil or rosemary folded in!
Erica says
i love grilled cheese sandwiches…and crackers and cheese is always great!

Heather T says
Cheese is my favorite food (I’m actually eating some mozz. cheese right now as I type this!). My favorite way to eat cheese is in a grilled cheese sandwich (surprise surprise) with mac&cheese and nachos a close 2nd and 3rd :)
Tara says
i love any cheese in the form of a grilled cheese sandwich!
National grilled cheese sandwich day was yesterday! I obviously celebrated loyally.

Caitlin says
I’ll eat cheese on just about anything! Salads, soups, sandwiches, crackers, a spoon…you name it, I love it :)

Mamie says
I love dips that include cheese!

Lindsay Ann says
I love goat cheese on salads…with fruit and nuts!! YUM!
Lindsay@Brownies For Brunch says
Though it sounds cliche, cheese on crackers with wine is divine! Can’t be beat. But I do love me some gooey cheese falling off a big ole piece of a deep dish pizza :-) My mouth literally just started to drool.
Jill says
I love making grilled cheese with tomato soup!! yummy
Miranda @ Working Mom Works Out says

Shanna, Like Banana says
One awesome way is to mix a bit of honey with Chevrie, spread over a crostini, and top with roasted beets!
Daniel B. says
My favorite way to eat cheese is out of hand. I’ll just cut a piece and put it in my mouth. Sometimes, especially if the cheese happens to be particularly soft or runny, I’ll put a generous amount of cheese on a small bit of crusty bread (it’s really just a cheese delivery device).
Lauren says
I love grilled cheese sandwiches! I also adore feta on salads.
Courtney @ The Granola Chronicles says
Mmm, cheese! Definitely one of my favorite things in life. To me, nothing beats macaroni & cheese OR nachos piled high with cheese and jalapenos! Of course I would pick the not-so-healthy foods! :)
Tisha says
I think my favorite is the old standard-grilled cheese, but I love cheese in just about anything!
Charlie says
My favorite way to enjoy cheese? This is hard! Love goat cheese & feta on salads! Love goat brie as is. But I’ll have to go with goat cheese & mushroom goat sandwich as my favorite ;). YUM Or with the best pasta I had in a restaurant… goat cheese, sun dried tomato & artichoke heart linguine. SO GOOD.
I just don’t have a favorite way to eat cheese lol. But as you can see, I seem to have a thing for goat cheese :).
Charlie says
<3 Sweet Tooth Sweet Life on Facebook!
Robyn says
I looovvve me some stuffed chicken with spinach and cheese! So delicious!

cheese melted on toasted garlic bread and cheese on pizza are my absolute favorite ways to have it-yum!
Lauren says
LOVE that pic of Cody with his little furry belly hehe.. toooo cute! :-D
Jordan says
Goat cheese and feta are my favorites!!! I love goat cheese on salad w/ sundried tomatoes…that has to be the best combo EVER.
Kalyn says
OMG, an easier question to answer would be how do I NOT enjoy cheese! It’s an addiction:
Smeared on bagels, crumbled in salads, melted on sandwiches, drizzled on popcorn, in string-form, and basically, just by the shredded-handful!
Andrea says
I love cheese!! I love melty, gooey cheddar grilled cheese sandwiches! I also love crumbled feta or goat cheese on salads! I love a big wedge of cheese with a nice glass of red wine! I just love cheese!

My favorite way to enjoy cheese is MELTED! Doesn’t really matter on what but I love me some gooey melted cheese :-)
Christina @ Food.Fun.Fabulous. says
I can’t live without cheese! Simple cheese and crackers is one of my go-to snacks. We have Chavrie all the time here since my bf’s mom is lactose intolerant so she goes for the goat’s milk cheeses. It’s delicious!
Colleen @ The Lunchbox Diaries says

Jamie aka "Sometimes Healthy" Girl says
That panini looks so amazing. I’m stuck in my office right now…what I wouldn’t give for a panini machine!
I am a cheese lova as well. Frankly, similar to chocolate, I feel that everything tastes better with cheese. Since I’m a carb lover though, I gotta say that the best way is on top of bread. I love me some grilled cheese :-)
Nellie says
My absolute favorite way to enjoy cheese is in a sandwich with smoked salmon, goat cheese and BBQ sauce. The combo is delicious!
Laura says
oh my gosh, I love cheese. I think my favorite way to enjoy it is melted with apples in a grilled cheese or quesadilla. Delish!
Rebecca says
I <3 Chavrie. I never buy it because it's so expensive, but when I lived in Paris Chavrie (and many other cheeses…like Boursin) it was ridiculously cheap! I ate it with everything! It's hard to choose a favorite way to eat cheese…but I think what trumps it all is a great glass of wine, some fruit like figs and grapes, perhaps some nuts and a selection of regional cheeses. Yum!
Ellie says
cheese oh my goodness on everything! But I think just straight on crackers is best
Sarah says
I love Brie on soft French bread! Yum!!

I put cheese on everything, my favorite way though is probably a grilled cheese sandwich.

I love cheese when its warm and melty inside of a breadstick!
But since I try to stay away from these.. I love laughing cow cheese on saltine crackers. Simple but dee-lish! :)
Samantha says
Oh my gosh I love cheese! My favorite way to enjoy it? That’s so hard to decide – I think my fave way to enjoy cheese would have to be as a snack. There are so many varieties and ways to enjoy cheese as a snack, you can’t go wrong!

Emily says
The best thing I’ve ever done with goat cheese, and quite possible the best appetizer known to man: Medjool dates. Take out the pitt. Stuff with goat cheese. Wrap in bacon. Bake at 425 until bacon is cooked. Eat. Your life is now complete.

I LUUUURVE every kind of cheese. And its hard to pin down exactly how I enjoy it best, but I probably would have to say in a grilled cheese sandwich. We usually add some tomatoes and spinach but the cheese flavor is not lost on me (or my hunny who is from the cheese state, Wisconsin).

I love to use any soft cheese such as brie, goat or even garlic and herb cheese and make my favorite chicken company dish: chicken en croute ( chicken breast stuffed with cheese, mushrooms and herbs and then rolled in crescent roll rectangle and baked). Easy and delicious. Soft and flavored cheeses work best! Yummy
