The flavors of fall come alive with this Italian inspired grilled cheese. A creamy butternut squash, mayo, butter and maple syrup mixture surrounded by fresh sage leaves and lots of Sargento® Reserve Series™ Aged Gouda between grilled whole grain bread. Now that’s comfort food.
Ingredients
- 8 slices Rustic whole grain bread
- 4 Tbsp. Butter, softened, divided
- 1 cup Cooked butternut squash, mashed
- 2 Tbsp. Maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. Mayonnaise
- ½ tsp. Salt
- 24-32 whole Fresh sage leaves
- 12 Slices Sargento® Reserve Series™ Aged Gouda
Directions
- Butter 1 side of each slice of bread, reserving one tablespoon of the butter for the squash. Set bread aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine remaining butter, squash, syrup, mayonnaise and salt. Stir with a fork, mashing as you stir, until mixture is creamy. Set aside.
- To Assemble: Place 2 slices of cheese each on 4 slices of bread, buttered side down. Spread about ¼ cup of squash mixture on each sandwich over cheese. Place 5-6 sage leaves over squash. Top each sandwich with 1 slice of cheese and bread, buttered side up.
- Pre-heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place 2 sandwiches on griddle and grill for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip sandwiches with a spatula. Grill an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer sandwiches to plates. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Cut in half and serve.
