Stromboli is a good recipe for bread making day. I usually make 6 loaves of bread at once. Invariably we eat one still hot from the oven with dinner, one goes in the breadbox for the next day, and I freeze the rest. It is easy enough to have the loaf we eat with dinner BE dinner.
Yesterday, when I asked the girls if they would like to help me make stromboli, a perplexing conversation ensued:
Kaira begins chanting, "Yummy, yummy green stromboli"
Me: "Um... green?"
Kaira: looking a little doubtful, "Yeah, green. You make it with kiwis."
"Kiwi fruit? In the stromboli?"
Kaira: "Thats what makes it green."
At this point I'm pretty sure she's thinking of something else, but baffled as to what.
Kendra, on the same wavelength her older sister, tries to help out, "We dip chips in it."
After thinking a minuted it dawns on me, "Guacamole?"
Both girls in unison: "Oh! Guacamole!"
Kiwi/avocado; stromboli/guacamole.
Here's our stromboli--which to my relief didn't turn out green. (I must have forgotten the kiwis.)
