Ben made this up. Props to him! He fed it to me when Evelyn was a week or two old. We were at his parents and I was hungry, so he made this up. It was so yummy that I asked for another. Now when Ben wants brownie points, he will make me one of these grilled cheese sandwiches!
good quality wheat bread
medium cheddar cheese
cream cheese
onion*
butter
Slice and saute the onions in butter. Cook until the onions are caramelized and brown. Butter the outsides of the bread. Spread cream cheese on the insides of the bread. Add a slices of the cheddar cheese to each side of the bread. On one side add caramelized onions. Put the side with the onions on a warm skillet. Top with the other side of bread and cheeses. Brown on both sides until the cheese is melted. This is great with some dressed up tomato soup or on it's own.
*You can substitute shallots for the onion for a twist.
Wow! We tried these a couple days ago and they are AMAZING! Definitely the ultimate grilled cheese sandwich!
