Grilled cheese reinvented

For Christmas, I got one of those grill machines to make grilled cheese with (and waffles, if you change the molds!) And who knows, one day I might just produce a grilled cheesus. In the meantime, since Kobe and I are vegetarians, we don't do the classic 'croque monsieur' with ham and cheese. Instead, I got creative and made:

• grilled cheese with a brie-type cheese with herbs
• grilled cheese with oud brugge and fried onions (slightly caramelized with a teaspoon of sugar... mmm!)
• grilled cheese with blue cheese and pear

All three heartily approved by a skeptical boyfriend (in advance, at least... after lunch it was a different story).

Next time I want to try to make grilled cheese with:

• brie and pepper jelly (bet some people saw this one coming)
• camembert and fig jam
• nutella and bananas (once you go experimental, might as well go all the way...)

And thén I figured I could try to make mini grilled cheeses as an appetizers next time I throw a party. Yes, I am on a culinary roll, haha! Stay tuned.
