Gruyere cheese, jam and arugula are three of our favorite foods. The flavors of the 3 different kinds of cheeses come together nicely. It has a tiny bit of sweet flavor to it with the jam. Try the Food Nanny sandwich creation! It is fast, easy and delicious. ~xo
Grate the Romano cheese really fine. Butter each piece of bread on one side. Press 1/4 cup of grated cheese into the butter. (It sticks perfectly). These are the outside pieces of bread that will be grilled.
On the opposite side of the bread, lay a thin slice of the Gruyere Cheese, then a thin slice of Colby/Jack cheese. Spread on some mustard. On the opposite piece of bread, spread on some apricot jam. Add the arugula. Bring the two pieces together to form a sandwich with the butter and cheese on the outsides. Repeat.
Heat a pan to medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and grill until the cheese is melted on the inside and the outside is golden brown. Serve immediately.
SERVE WITH: Chips of choice, of course...we LOVE chips, and unfortunately cannot eat a sandwich without a few crunchy chips on the side.
VARIATION: Use colby/jack shredded cheese and spread on mayonnaise and top with minced yellow onion. Butter the bread and grill. This was Grandma's version of a kicked up Grilled Cheese. Love it!!
