Grilled Jack Cheese and Applesauce Sandwiches

Are you ready for Fall apples and a nip in the air? 

We are around here...apples, cheese and a little squeeze! 

The first thing we did this last Spring was plant fruit trees, three apples in particular.  Saturday we harvested about a dozen apples from our little trees...so happy apple week!

Grilled Jack Cheese and Applesauce Sandwiches were my cousin, Cheryl's, college creation.  They are a delicious twist on a traditional grilled cheese sandwich, toasted on a hot skillet.

I like to use sourdough bread, the best Jack Cheese out there, applesauce and a little butter.

Slather one side of both slices of bread with applesauce, add generous slices of cheese, slap it together, and lightly butter the tops.  Place it on a hot skillet, I use medium heat, and give it a little squeeze.  Watch it carefully and turn when it is golden brown.  Keep watching till the second side is toasty too.  

Now slice it in half and serve it.

With what?  Well lucky for you here's a bonus,  a crunchy side salad.

Toss sliced apples with baby greens, radicchio, toasted walnuts, and feta cheese.  Now stir some balsamic vinegar with a little pear chutney and some olive oil and it was a slightly sweet,
pungent vinaigrette.   It was perfection...just saying....ever so humbly.

Enjoy this most glorious time of the year, and an apple {one way or another} each day.  

Thanks for stopping by!
