Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Honey & Pear

This is a grilled cheese sandwich variation. I love a good grilled cheese, especially in the autumn & winter months – along with a piping hot soup, it’s the perfect combo. For this one, I chose to pair gouda with honey & pear, as I love this flavor combination – plus I think a sweet & savoury mix for a grilled cheese is always a good idea.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings: 2 sandwiches
Course: Lunch
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices bread
  • butter or margarine
  • 80 g Gouda shredded
  • 1 small pear
  • honey to taste
  • arugula or spinach
  • salt & pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. For each sandwich: take two slices of bread and spread some butter and / or margarine on one side of each slice.


  2. Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
  3. Place the buttered sides face down and on the other side, add some cheese, and top with arugula or spinach, then the sliced pears. Add a drizzle of honey, salt & pepper & then add some more cheese on top. Cover with the second slice of bread (buttered slices facing out).
  4. Add your sandwich onto the skillet and press down. Cook for about 3 minutes until bottom slice gets golden and crispy. (Watch it so it doesn’t burn!) Flip and cook the other side for another couple minutes.
  5. Serve immediately & enjoy!
