Nothing says comfort to me like a grilled cheese sandwich. This is a delicious variation from the classic. Recipe from Family Circle. Ingredients:
1 large onion, very thinly sliced |
1/4 teaspoon sugar |
salt, pinch |
4 teaspoons spicy brown mustard |
3 teaspoons horseradish |
2 teaspoons honey |
8 slices light whole wheat bread |
12 slices light ham |
4 slices gruyere cheese |
4 cups mixed greens (optional) |
Directions:
1. Coat a medium-size nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium heat. 2. Add onion, sugar and salt to skillet; cover. 3. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until lightly browned; remove from heat. 4. Stir together mustard, horseradish and honey; set aside. 5. Spread 4 slices of bread evenly with mustard mixture, then layer 3 slices ham over each piece of bread. 6. Place about 2 T onions on top of the ham, then place 1 slice cheese on top of the onions. 7. Place 4 remaining bread slices over cheese. 8. Spritz both sides of sandwich with nonstick cooking spray and cook in nonstick skillet over medium heat for 5-8 minutes or until cheese has melted, turning halfway through. 9. Serve with mixed greens on the side, if desired. |
