This recipe is based on something I had at a restaurant in Minneapolis called Cafeteria. It has an amazing rooftop patio and great food so if you're in that area, definitely stop in. But, that's not what this post is about. It's about the grilled cheese sandwich (and salad) that was inspired by a sandwich I had at the restaurant.
What you will need:
2 slices of rye bread (or any grainy bread)
2 slices of Swiss cheese
Crumbled blue cheese
2 strips of bacon
Pear
Basil
Red onion
No instructions really for this - just simply make a sandwich and throw it in a frying pan. Flipping is a little tricky because there's a lot of stuff in there so just be careful (I kind of used my hands a little bit). Also, don't get anxious when you're making this. Put your burner on low heat otherwise the bread will get dark before the cheese is melted inside.
Salad:
Mixed greens
Strawberries
Crumbled goat cheese
Red onion
Craisins
Sugared walnuts
Poppyseed dressing
Toss everything together (I like to just sprinkle the craisins, goat cheese and walnuts on top so they don't sink to the bottom) and you're ready.
Voila! The perfect summer lunch.
Om nom nom.
