This grilled cheese was inspired by Tyler Florence of the Food Network. This grilled cheese is full of flavor and so delicious with the melted cheese, thinly sliced green apples, caramelized onions, and have I mentioned BACON! The bacon takes it over the top, and the the apple and onion add an incredible sweet flavor. I gave some to Emily (Robby’s girlfriend) she took one bite and came running around the corner to ask me what was in it. She loved it after just one bite! Robby and I loved it so much I made them again the next day!!!
INGREDIENTS
(for 4 sandwiches)
1 Granny Smith apple (very thinly sliced, I used a mandolin)
Sharp cheddar cheese (as much as you want)
Caramelized onion (I used 1 onion)
8 slices of thick sliced cooked bacon
8 slices of your favorite sandwich bread (I used a multi-grain)
Butter
DIRECTIONS
Caramelize your onion by slicing the onion into thin strips and cook over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil until golden brown. This takes some time but well worth it! Cook your bacon until crisp. Place a large skillet on your stove top and heat over medium heat. Spread the “down ” side of your slice of bread with butter and place down on your skillet, add your cheese, onion, bacon and thinly sliced apple. Top with another piece of bread that you have buttered and place the butter side up onto the sandwich. Push down slightly and cover for just a couple minutes or until the bottom side is browned. Then flip and cook until the second side is browned. Remove from heat, serve warm.
Enjoy,
