- Grilled Cheese, Pear & Smoked Turkey Sandwich Recipe
Recently I've been having some fun in the kitchen creating recipes using products from Dulcet Cuisine including my favorite, the Madras Curry Mustard. I'm not the only one to have fallen in love with it, it was chosen the grand champion at the...
- All About Chutney
I first had chutney served with Indian food, probably with curry. It was thick and gloppy and vinegary but I loved it anyway. Since that time I have eaten chutney with roasted meats such as lamb and pork and I can't bear to eat a cheese sandwich...
- Grilled Mozzarella Tomato & Pesto Sandwiches Recipe
Lots of people pooh pooh the George Foreman grill. Not me. I think it's great for roasting vegetables, making shish kebabs and grilling delicate things like fish. But most of all I love it for being a makeshift panini press. Last night's grilled...
- This Week At The Market
I went to the farmers market again today. Peaches, tomatoes and cucumbers were still plentiful and a few heirloom tomato varieties showed up this week. I bought two beautiful tomatoes: one Purple Cherokee and one Brandywine. ...
- Minimalist Sandwich
This is just a sandwich. A good sandwich, to be fair. But a sandwich, nonetheless. Chicken, marinated in olive oil and garlic and lemon juice, grilled. Topped with slices of mozzarella, tomatoes marinated in the same (but different bowl, 'cause,...

Amy's Southwestern Grilled Cheese Sandwich
 |
| Thanks to Nate Pollack for the photo |
Sharing original recipes here on the blog led to writing a cookbook and doing recipe development for corporate clients. But this is the first time (that I know of) that I've ever had an item on a menu. It's my Southwestern Grilled Cheese Sandwich and it's available at The American Grilled Cheese Kitchen. I don't know how long it will stay on the menu, but for this week, 20% of the proceeds of the sandwich go to support one of my favorite non-profits in San Francisco, La Cocina.
So what's in the sandwich?
- Artisan Bakers sourdough
- Chipotle butter
- Tillamook Jack
- Tillamook Sharp Cheddar
- Fresh Jalapeños and Hatch chilis (from New Mexico)
- Roasted tomatoes
- Sweet white corn
- Black beans seasoned with garlic, cumin and bay leaves
Do give it a try and let me know what you think!
