Makes 4 sandwiches
INGREDIENTS
1 loaf sliced sourdough bread
½ cup mayonnaise
1 Honeycrisp Apple
1 pack gouda cheese
1 container baby arugula
INSTRUCTIONS
Heat griddle to medium high heat.
Slice the apple into thin slices with no seeds, reserve.
Lather one side of 8 slices of sourdough with mayo.
Place 4 slices of bread mayo-side down on the griddle. Put a slice of gouda on the bread, then line that with sliced apple in a single layer. Top that with arugula, then another slice of gouda. Finally place another slice of sourdough mayo side up.
Flip each sandwich over so the top mayo side is now down and on the griddle. Cover with a dome if applicable. Cook for 2 minutes or until finished browning and melting. Remove sandwich from heat and place on cutting board. Cut it in half diagonally and watch that cheese put on a magic show.
