Tomato Basil Grilled Cheese
Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 8 minutes | Total Time: 23 minutes
Ingredients:
2 slices sourdough bread
2 slices heirloom tomato
2 slices bacon, cooked
1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup havarti cheese, shredded
2 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
1/2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
1 tbsp Everything Bagel Seasoning
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Arrange the tomato slices on a cutting board or paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper. Let sit for 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
In a small bowl, combine the cheddar, Havarti, basil, and thyme.
Butter one side of each slice of bread. Sprinkle the buttered sides with Parmesan cheese and Everything Bagel Seasoning, pressing gently so the toppings adhere.
On the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, layer the cheese mixture, tomatoes, and bacon. Top with the remaining slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwich and cook for 3–4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and crisp and the cheese is melted.
Slice and serve warm, preferably with a cup of tomato soup!
