HONEY-BASIL GRILLED CHEESE
YumSugar, the savvy food column on the Sugar Network, made this delicious sandwich in honor of National Grilled Cheese Month. They crafted this stack of melted goodness with mozzarella, fontina, fresh basil, tomatoes and honey. I recommend choosing a multigrain or wheat bread that's just a tiny bit sweet. It makes the perfect enclosure to this yummy sandwich. From Woman's Day magazine.

Steps:
- To make each sandwich, spread one side of each slice of bread with desired amount of butter.
- On the opposite side of two of the slices, spread a generous amount of honey, just enough to cover the surface.
- Divide the tomatoes between the two sandwiches and arrange the slices on top of the honey. Then, lay four slices of fontina cheese on top of each tomato-topped slice.
- Divide the basil leaves between the two sandwiches and lay atop the fontina. Then top each basil-covered slice with the sliced mozzarella. Top with remaining bread slices, butter side up.
- Over very low heat, preheat a skillet then grill the sandwiches one at a time. To ensure the cheese melts evenly, cover the skillet with a lid while cooking. Grill each side for about 3 to 5 minutes, until lightly browned.

FRESH TOMATO, BASIL GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH
This is a low good fat version of a grilled cheese seasoned with fresh and dried herbs and garden fresh tomatoes. I used a regular pan but for ease you can use a nonstick pan.

GRILLED CHEESE & HONEY PANINI RECIPE
adapted from paninihappy blog, this is a simple but wonderful panini/grilled cheese. Because it does not have a lot of other ingredients, make sure you use good raclette (or gruyere) and honey. The amounts are guidelines only, go by your own taste Updated 28.30.12 God this is good..I also tried it with taleggio which worked well.
