    This is reminding me of the icebox logs my aunt always used to make. Chocolate wafers with mint whipped cream and vanilla wafers with banana whipped cream. I have to try my hand at one soon. She always complained that they were labor intensive, but she might have just been looking for sympathy :tongue:. My heart would literally skip a beat when I saw them in the fridge. I'm not sure if they are all that calorie dense, but the amount I would want to eat certainly would be a splurge! Hers were way more cookie to whipped cream than this picture though, and she used really thin wafers...

    chicken chimichanga

    The word "chimichanga" always makes me giggle. But, eating a chimichanga is serious business.

    The chimichanga pictured is from a website where it is baked instead of deep fried, they claim it is only 350 calories.

    I have never heard of chicken chimichanga before but have to admit that it looks divine!

    Basically seasoned meat and/or veggie and/or rice & beans stuffed into a flour tortillas. Wrap it up tightly then deep fry. Make sure to then drench it in guacamole & salsa and cojita cheese (my personal preference)

    I am having this for dinner tonight, but not in the portions I'd prefer!

    I had vegetarian spaghetti (crumbles instead of beef) with spinach noodles and garlic/butter ciabatta bread last night. My portion might have been that big. Going to spend some serious time at the gym this afternoon.

    I could go to town and a bag of these right now! I can never stop at just one or two...

    The dark chocolate/mint ones they used to have?!? *drool

    Luckily, I can't find them anywhere (and don't tell me if you know!)

    My lifetime fav... haven't had in years though...

    Same here, but you forgot the big pile of garlic parmesan fries on the side!

    Back when I was a kid, when we went to San Diego on vacation, there was a restaurant in Hotel Circle called Ricky's where we'd go for breakfast. They served these 2-3 inch thick German apple pancakes. I haven't had anything like that in ages...
    Something like this but thicker and puffier

    I'll tell you what does not compute - a close friend of mine lived in Lancaster, PA for a short while. She went to a Mexican restaurant there, and they served chimichangas with white sauce ?!?! (we're both Southern Californians so that was culture shock).

    ETA never mind - I found some recipes that had sour cream sauce, but I have no idea if that's what she had. But maybe not, because she was shocked about whatever it was)
