Grown-Up Grilled Cheese Sandwich

By: Diane Roark from recipesforourdailybread.com

"Carly, my oldest daughter, inherited my love for grilled cheese, but one day decided to kick it up. She added some honey, spicy mustard, Cajun season and spinach and called it her Grown-Up Grilled Cheese. Carly has been making this sandwich ever since she was a teenager."

Notes

This is a great way to get your healthy spinach in your diet with this ooey gooey grilled cheese.

SKILLET METHOD

Add it to a medium hot skillet. If the skillet is to hot the sandwich will burn. I like to place a lid on top for a couple of minutes. Make sure the sandwich is not burning.

Butter the top of the sandwich and flip it over.

Cook until the bottom piece of bread is golden brown.

My hubby is the king of creative grilled cheese sandwiches! He would really love this version. I like the honey mixed with the mustard. It gives a sweet and tangy twist. I think that a good smoked gouda would taste amaing on this sandwhich. Rosemary ham would also be abolutely yummy. I was lucky enough to have been given a panini press, so I can get a nice crispy crust on the outside of my sandwich. If you are making it in a pan, you can press down while it's cooking to build up a crust. So yummy and fun to experment with grilled cheese!

I honestly wouldn't have thought of adding spinach to a grilled cheese sandwich, but I'd like to give it a try. The combo of honey, brown mustard, and cajun seasoning would definitely give it an unusual taste. I've used brown spicy mustard on grilled cheese before, but honey and cajun seasoning are new to me. I'm not sure what cheese (or cheeses) would be best for this. I do want to try a sharp American and a cheddar, but I think a Monterey Jack or pepper jack might also work very well.

Sunday nights are no cook nights in my house and we always make grilled cheese. This 'grown up' grilled cheese seems a great alternative to the boring 'cheese on bread' we are used to. I like the combination of mustard, honey and cajun spices. I think those flavors go well together. I also love spinach but never thought to add that to a grilled cheese sandwich so this Sunday I am definitely going to add some. Yummm, I'm looking forward to trying this on the weekend.

This is really an interesting sandwich. I can't wait to try this combination of ingredients. We make grilled ham and cheese sandwiches, but we never add spinach or honey or Cajun seasoning. I can't wait to try this with some soup and salad. I'll try it with different kinds of cheeses to see which we like best.
