Grilled cheese sandwiches are a classic comfort food that never goes out of style. But if you’re looking to add some excitement to your traditional sandwich, I have the perfect recipe for you – Butternut Squash and Sage Pesto Grilled Cheese.
To start, preheat your skillet on medium-high heat. While it’s heating up, grab a butternut squash, peel it and remove the seeds. Cut the squash into small pieces and cook them for around 10 minutes until they become soft.
Next, make the sage pesto by combining sage, garlic, pecans, parmesan cheese, and olive oil in a food processor until it’s all mixed together. This pesto is packed with flavor and will give your sandwich a unique twist.
Now, assemble the sandwich by spreading the sage pesto on a slice of bread, followed by a layer of butternut squash, and finally some sharp cheddar cheese. Place the sandwich in the skillet and let it cook until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden and crispy.
To make this sandwich even more amazing, I recommend pairing it with a delicious frittata. This Butternut Squash, Bacon, Kale + Goat Cheese Frittata is the perfect addition to your meal.
Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F. Cook bacon in a pan on medium heat until crispy, then remove and drain on a paper towel. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and milk, then stir in chopped kale, crumbled goat cheese, and cooked bacon. Pour the mixture into a greased pan and bake for around 25 minutes or until it’s cooked all the way through.
Now, sit back and enjoy the delicious flavors of fall with these two simple and tasty recipes. These dishes are perfect for a cozy night in and are sure to satisfy your cravings.
