Year of the Rat Roll
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. You can make a juicy, vibrant roll with any melty fillings: hard or processed cheese, cottage cheese or brynza, feta, mozzarella, or suluguni. The key is to spread the filling on a warm omelet and let it cool thoroughly in the refrigerator before slicing. Serve the appetizer at the table.
