There's really not a science to putting these together. And you just use as much bread, cheese, bacon, & apple slices as you want for however many sandwiches you're making. But here's what I used for two:
- 1 small gala apple, cored & thinly sliced
- 4 slices hickory smoked bacon (like real bacon)
- Sprouts white sandwich bread (I usually get their wheat, but they were out last time I needed bread. I really like Sprouts bread. It tastes way less processed. No artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives.)
- Velata cheddar cheese
- Butter (If you're one of those people that use mayo when making a grilled cheese, consider yourself judged. Butter is better.)
Now, there are plenty of ways you can go about putting everything together. This would be my recommendation:
- Cook your bacon in a fry pan as directed on the package. Use a paper towel to soak up the majority of the grease (or pour it in a jar). But make sure to leave a bit of grease in the pan--it will add a lot of flavor to you sandwich.
- I spread butter on the "outside" part of the bread slices.
- I slathered Velata on the "inside" part of the bread slices, so that there would be a layer of cheese, then bacon, then apple, then another layer of cheese.
- Grill it up until it's warmed through & your cheese is melty.
Things at work have been crazy lately. Respiratory season has definitely hit, and so my floor is having to take the overflow of sick kids in addition to our surgical kids. I'm totally good with like blood & gore, CSF, chest tubes, and JP drains…but I. hate. mucus. so. much. It was also challenging working Monday night, and then staying over on Tuesday until noon for education stuff. I was awake for almost 24 hours. Took a 3 hour nap & went to Zumba. And then crashed for another 10 1/2. I will (probably) go back tomorrow night & then I've got Friday & Saturday before a 4-day break. Happy Birthday to me. I'm so looking forward to Mexico in March… Hope everyone else's week is wonderful!
