Product used: Classic Wheat

Yield: 4 servings - 45-50g protein/sandwich.

Method:

  1. Spread a very small amount of butter on one side of the Equii bread slices.
  2. Toast the butter side in a skillet on low heat until light golden-brown.
  3. Place the bread slices, golden brown sides up, on your work surface and lightly spread with French mustard.
  4. Divide your choice of cheeses, and a few thinly sliced jalapeno pieces on top of half of the bread slices.
  5. Sandwich with the remaining slices.
  6. Spread a very small amount of butter on both sides of the cheese sandwiches and lightly season with salt.
  7. Wrap and refrigerate the sandwiches until needed.
  8. Place your cheese sandwich in a skillet over medium heat, cover and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  9. Keep flipping and pushing down until cheese is melted.
  10. Once the cheese is melted, remove from the skillet, and serve.

Alternative serving options:

  • Finely sliced red onion and tomatoes.
  • Slow cooked caramelized onions.
  • Kimchi, chutneys, or pesto.
  • Cooked mushrooms (Duxelle)
  • Fire roasted tomatoes.
  • Any type of natural or smoked, cured or dry cured hams.

  • Bechamel sauce and cured ham to make the French Croque-Monsieur.
  • Slightly rub garlic on your bread prior to building your sandwiches.
