Easy Sandwich Recipe

I’m celebrating National Grilled Cheese Month with this version that is made with Peluso’s Tomales Bay Teleme Cheese.  Teleme Cheese is super creamy and mild.  It pairs very well with fruit.

I added grapes roasted with honey, thyme and salt.  The flavor is on a whole new level!

Roasted Grapes . . . oh how I love roasted grapes.

Roasting grapes with honey, salt and thyme creates the ultimate sweet and savory combination.

I gushed about my love for roasted grapes back when I posted a recipe for Crostini with Ricotta and Roasted Grapes.  So, I’ll spare you the verbose adoration.

The only thing I will say is: If you have not yet tasted roasted grapes . . . Do It!  Do It Now!

This Grilled Cheese Sandwich may be fancy.  But it isn’t complicated to make.

Simply roast the grapes.  Butter the bread.  Layer the cheese and grapes.  Fry it up.  Eat.
