Gruyere pairs so well with onions (it’s the cheese typically served with French onion soup). It’s an equally winning combo in this upscale grilled cheese.
Ingredients
Cooking spray
3 spray(s)
Onion
½ medium, sweet-variety, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
Reduced calorie wheat bread
4 slice(s)
Dijon mustard
2 tsp(s)
Gruyère cheese
2 oz, shredded (about 1/2 cup)
Instructions
1
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Add onions; reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until tender and golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove onions to a plate.
2
Lay 2 slices of bread on a work surface; spread each with 1 teaspoon mustard. Top each with half of the cheese and onions; cover each with a second piece of bread.
3
Wipe skillet clean; heat over medium-low heat. Coat sandwiches with cooking spray. Cook until bottoms are browned, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip sandwiches over and cook until browned on other side and cheese is melted, about 2 minutes more. Slice each sandwich in half and serve. Yields 1 sandwich per serving.
