What do you do when you have a wine and cheese party, and have several blocks of decadent cheeses leftover? Fontina, Gruyer, Jarlsberg, Chevre?
I hope to share a few cheesy recipes in the coming weeks, but today, I'm sharing a super simple combination for a fancy grilled cheese--the ultimate comfort food. This sandwich would be even better on sliced artisan, rustic, or sourdough loaf. I didn't have anything but whole wheat sandwich bread, so that's what we used.
What you need:
- sliced bread,
- butter, coconut oil, etc.
- sliced gouda slices of ham (or bacon!)
- apple slices
Just a tip...I love to layer gouda, then apple, then ham, then another thin layer of gouda...so everything sticks together nice and gooey. :)
Yummy with a bit of dijon...perhaps some apricot or fig preserves? Delish. Try it with my homemade tomato basil soup! Comfort food, elevated. Enjoy!
