Chipotle Muenster Grilled Cheese (A WINK Original)

   
Soup and Sandwich Night!

    Every once in a while a WINK member decides that there's something more important that they need to do on a Tuesday evening than cook earth shattering dishes with us. Shocking, I know. WINK missed Jen and Joe last night. Their top priority was an Elton John concert.
Our reaction precisely, Elton!
     In discussion, we collectively decided that this would have been cool in 1982 (thanks for the estimate Jesse) and not a viable excuse to miss WINK in 2013 (but let's be honest, who doesn't love a little Elton John tunes here and there - certainly wouldn't be The Lion King without him). Their punishment was to miss an epic dinner - Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese. Not much of a punishment, you say? Check out these flavor combinations...a delicious twist on the classic! We highly recommend (and probably will be) repeating this dish!

Ingredients
- Panera Bread White Bread Loaf (sliced)
- Chipotle Muenster Sliced Cheese
- Butter
- Smoked Turkey Breast (sliced deli meat)
- Grated Swiss Cheese
Directions
1. Heat up your griddle (medium-low heat, or your sandwich will be burnt to hell like Dave's was - they had ONE JOB). We used a large flat nonstick pan that I was very glad to find a use for.
2. Butter one side of your bread and stick them, butter side down, onto the griddle.
3. Immediately place 1-2 slices of chipotle muenster cheese on one slice of bread. On the other slice, sprinkle some of the grated swiss. Fold over a slice of turkey on the muenster side. Let them toast 2-3 minutes depending on the temperature of your pan.
4. When the cheese begins to melt, flip the muenster/turkey side onto the swiss side. Toast about a minute longer on each side and voila!

  1. I take offense to the Elton remarks above. I'm sure Elton does too. You're all jealous because you missed an amazing concert.

    I would continue ranting, but I'm just going to subject you all to poorly tuned renditions of Honky Cat and Bennie and the Jets on Sunday. You're welcome.
