Caramelized Onion, Mushroom, and Swiss Melt

We’re on day #4 of blizzard 2016 dig out. There are still so many residential roads that still haven’t been touched. The schools are still closed around here and the federal government is still telling employees to stay home and telework. This is so crazy! There is SO much snow that they really just have nowhere to put it even if they’re plowing. Like, our main roads and interstates have pretty much turned into 1 or 2 lane roads. And there’s like no warning. You’ll be driving and all of a sudden it’s like ‘woah my lane is gone.’ It’s pretty treacherous and I can’t imagine what rush hour is going to be like once everyone starts going back to work. Niiiightmare!

In other news, Winston gets his cast off today! He is going to be so happy but he won’t realize that the happiness will be short-lived. He is going to be restricted on so many things that he will think is normal. No jumping, no running, no rough-housing/playing with other dogs, no nothing! We’re going to have to tell ‘no!’ on basically everything he tries to do. This is only the beginning of the long road to recovery. It’s going to be really hard and going to test our (and his) patience so much. But like Jason said, this short-term nuisance will give him a long-term better quality of life. I just wish he understood that :) happy thoughts for the next 16 weeks would be appreciated!

During this blizzard, all I have been craving is pure comfort food. The stick to your ribs kind and the not-so-good-for-you kind. It’s the cold weather, I’m tellin’ ya!

So this caramelized onion, mushroom, and Swiss melt was actually a recipe that was supposed to be in the cookbook! However, I took it out in the end because it didn’t seem very ‘dinner’ and filling for a dinner entree. However, this would be a great lunch option or a delicious dinner with a soup on the side! Omg, yes!
