My sister-in-law served us this hummus grilled cheese sandwich after seeing it posted on the Dallas Arboretum bulletin board. I thought it was too good not to share, and it's a perfect choice for Meatless Monday. We especially enjoy rye or sourdough for this sandwich.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
- 0.5 cups coarsely chopped sweet onion
- 4 slices bread
- 4 teaspoons mayonnaise
- 0.67 cups roasted red pepper hummus , such as ATHENOS®
- 0.5 cups shredded Swiss cheese
Instructions
-
1
Melt butter over medium heat in a skillet. Sauté mushrooms and onions until tender, about 5 minutes; remove from skillet, and set skillet aside.
-
2
Spread mayonnaise on 4 slices of bread. Turn the slices mayo side down, and evenly spread hummus on all 4 slices. On only 2 of those slices, evenly layer mushroom-onion mixture followed by Swiss cheese. Top with remaining 2 bread slices with mayonnaise side up. (To clarify, each of the 2 sandwiches will have hummus on the top and bottom of the sandwich, with cheese and mushroom mixture in the center).

3
Reheat the skillet over medium heat; place sandwiches mayonnaise side down in the skillet, and cook until golden brown on both sides and cheese is melted, 5 to 6 minutes, flipping half way through.

Easy Beef Bourguignon
This is the speedy, easy version of boeuf Bourguignon, the classic French slow-cooked beef dish. Delicious over cooked egg noodles or mashed potatoes. Leftovers taste great as well - just reheat on the stove.
Colonial Pumpkin Bars
Vanilla frosted pumpkin bars with walnuts are the best! These can also be frozen with or without the frosting, for later use.
Italian Breakfast Strata
Chef John's Italian breakfast strata is one of the best breakfast casseroles ever, layered with Italian bread cubes, Italian sausage, plenty of spinach, and melty fontina cheese in just the right amount of egg custard. It has a fantastic fluffy texture, rich and satisfying, and yet somehow not heavy.
