Jazzy Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Three Cheeses on bread brushed with garlic butter and a whisper of mustard _ Jazzy Grilled Cheese Sandwich A Pinch of Joy

Grilled Cheese is a quick and easy lunch by itself or in combination with a bowl of soup.  A classic.  But sometimes you want something more than classic and the same ole, same ole.  Jazz up your grilled cheese sandwich with a little something extra and it soars to the next level.  Make it several somethings extra and lunch becomes legendary!

To build this flavorful sandwich, use a good quality bakery bread for the foundation.  We like sourdough bread for its texture, taste and because it does not impact blood sugar as much as do other breads.  One of the groceries in town makes great sourdough in two sizes – a six inch diameter circle and an 8 inch circle loaf.  One slice of cheese covers the smaller loaf, but the bigger one needs a slice and a half  and sometimes 2 slices.  I just break the slices to fit the bread so it is completely covered.  Stack on each sandwich the additional slices of  two other different cheeses.  You can combine any three of your favorite cheeses.  The ones I used happened to be in the refrigerator drawer.  Another time it will be cheddar because I nearly always have that on hand, but the other two cheeses are likely to be different ones.

I lay out the slices of bread and run a squiggly line of mustard across the middle of each one.  A quick swipe with a spatula leaves a thin layer of mustard.  The whole slice is not covered, just the middle couple of inches.  Add the cheese, then top with the second slice of bread.  Brush top side with the melted garlic butter, and lay the sandwich buttered side down in the heated skillet with its additional butter.  Brush the top of each sandwich with the garlic butter.  Brown until the bread becomes golden and the cheese is melted.  Jazzy indeed!

How about a salad for lunch tomorrow?  Check out this Beef and Pear Salad with honey mustard dressing.
