Take grilled cheese to a sweet place
with the addition of sliced pear. Tangy
whole-grain mustard rounds out
the flavors and makes this sandwich
substantial enough for dinner.
Makes 2 sandwiches
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons whole-grain
mustard
4 slices sourdough bread
1 medium pear, halved and
thinly sliced
4 slices muenster
Melt butter in a large skillet set
over medium heat. Spread 1
tablespoon mustard on one
side of each slice of bread.
Add 2 slices bread, mustard
side up, to the skillet. Top
each with half the sliced pear
and 2 slices of muenster. Top
with remaining bread slices,
mustard side down. Cook
sandwichs until bread is golden
brown and muenster has
melted, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Using a spatula, carefully
flip sandwiches and cook an
additional 3 minutes.
