You won’t even realize you’re eating leftovers with this Grilled Cheese Thanksgiving Leftovers Sandwich. It has turkey, sweet apple, tart cranberry sauce, tons of Tillamook cheese, and fried sage. It takes the idea of reinventing leftovers to a whole new level!

Does anyone remember the Friends episode with the “moist maker”? (Ross’ turkey sandwich with a gravy-soaked slice of bread in the center.)…

Caramelized Pineapple Grilled Cheese with Honeyed Walnuts

April 27, 2015 by Faith 26 Comments

What’s up with the pineapples on houses everywhere?, either Mike asked me or I asked him when we first moved to Virginia. Because they literally are everywhere…we noticed them carved or engraved on mailboxes, porches, doorways, doorknobs, door knockers, and welcome mats, and that’s before you even get inside. Once inside a traditional Southern house, you may notice a pineapple design integrated right into the house (for example, carved into fireplace mantels), as well as throughout the décor (like in paintings and carpets)....

Strawberry Grilled Cheese {With Fresh Strawberry Balsamic Relish}

April 4, 2013 by Faith 31 Comments

Grilled cheese, the iconic American sandwich, is a favorite of most kids growing up and never stops being comfort food, even to adults. Crisp and buttery outside and gooey with melted cheese inside, it’s the perfect sandwich, even in its most basic form. I grew up on American cheese-grilled cheese sandwiches, usually paired with tomato soup, which was of course the perfect accompaniment for dipping purposes. As my sister and I would greedily scarf down our sandwiches and soup, my mom would enjoy grilled cheese of a different kind: a much more grown-up version, usually with a sweet flair....

Sweet Honey-Pomegranate Grilled Cheese

January 25, 2013 by Faith 18 Comments

I don’t remember the first (edible) recipe I ever made, but I remember what it was for my brother: grilled cheese. He was about 10 and home alone for the first time. Of course, despite orders not to, he cooked for himself. My mom said she got home and he ran over to her, saying he figured out the secret trick to the best grilled cheese in the world. (A mighty tall claim for a 10-year-old!) My mom, who was more than a little intrigued, smiled and asked What? Grinning like the Cheshire cat, my brother exclaimed You have to slap the cheese back and […]...

Spinach-Mozzarella Grilled Cheese

April 27, 2012 by Faith 23 Comments

With all the amazing looking grilled cheese recipes that have been floating around the internet recently you probably know that April is National Grilled Cheese month. I had no idea that such a thing existed until the lovely Jo-Lynne (of Musings of a Housewife) asked me if I wanted to create a grilled cheese recipe in honor of the occasion. (Of course I said yes. :) )...

Croque Madame

September 23, 2010 by Faith 53 Comments

Bistros are known for their comfort food, and both the Croque Monsieur and Croque Madame are bistro classics. The Croque Monsieur is basically the French version of a grilled cheese sandwich; it’s stuffed with Gruyère cheese and ham (I used turkey instead), and topped with either Mornay or Béchamel sauce. The Croque Madame is the Croque Monsieur with a fried egg on top. And I have to say, Dear Reader, that as fabulous as a Croque Monsieur is, I will probably never eat it when the possibility of runny yolk can easily turn it into a Croque Madame. ;) Croque Madame (Yield: 2 servings) Mornay […]...
