Super Snazzy Grilled Cheese Sandwich image

I made this for the RSC #11 contest. This certainly isn't a low fat or diet friendly sandwich but it is very indulgent tasting. I grilled mine on my Foreman Grill so that I didn't have to use extra butter and plus I got the nifty grill mark lines :)

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 shallot, thinly sliced
1/4 cup mushroom, roughly chopped
2 slices unsmoked bacon, chopped into pieces
1/2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup gouda cheese, shredded
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, chopped in half
4 baby spinach leaves
2 slices bread

Steps:

  • Saute shallots, mushrooms and bacon in the olive oil until the bacon is cooked through but not crispy and the shallots are softened.
  • Put the shredded cheese in a small bowl and sprinkle with cayenne pepper. Toss until all of the cheese is coated by the cayenne pepper.
  • Put half of the cheese mixture on one of the slices of bread.
  • Top cheese with the shallot, mushroom and bacon mixture and spread out so that it fully covers the bread and cheese.
  • Arrange the six tomato halves on the bread so that they form two parallel lines down the middle of the bread.
  • Put one spinach leaf on each corner.
  • Put the second half of the cheese mixture on top of the spinach and top with the second slice of bread.
  • Spray each side of the sandwich with butter flavored cooking spray and put onto a hot Foreman type grill and cook until the cheese is melted and the outside is golden (about 5 minutes) OR fry in a buttered pan as you would a traditional grill cheese sandwich.
