Indulge in a delectable Grilled Cheese with Mozzarella, Roasted Red Peppers, and Arugula - a sweet and peppery twist on a classic favorite!
Ingredients:
  • 8 slices sourdough bread
  • Butter, soft and at room temperature
  • Dijon mustard, to taste
  • Mayonnaise, to taste
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 18 ounces jarred roasted peppers (oil- or water-packed), patted dry of excess moisture
  • 12 ounces low-moisture mozzarella, cut into 1/4-inch slices (or shredded, if that’s how you roll)
  • 2 cups arugula
Instructions:
  • Assemble the sandwiches: Spread Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, and a pinch of salt and pepper on one side of each slice of bread. Layer 4 ounces of peppers, 3 ounces of mozzarella, and a generous handful of arugula on the unbuttered sides. Place buttered sides down in a skillet over medium-low heat. Press gently and cover with another slice of bread, buttered side facing out.
  • Grill the cheese sandwiches over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side, ensuring they're not overly browned. After 6 to 8 minutes, the cheese should be melted and the bread toasted. Repeat with the rest of the sandwiches.
