Death Row Meal

One of celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain's favorite questions is "what is your death row meal" i.e. what would your last meal be if you could choose.

My mother's stromboli has been my favorite dish since she first made it when I was 12. Whenever possible I goad her into making it for me. Stromboli is a type of turnover filled with cheese and meat. Hers is simple and delicious. Our past couple Christmas dinners have featured stromboli and only by the gracious persistence of my sister did my mother make it this year. Good as ever.

Rounding out my last meal would be my mothers chicken chili(refrigerated and reheated the day after it was made), Brussels sprouts and a Cherry Coke Zero.

It would be a fine meal to end on.
