People have been putting interesting spins on the classic grilled cheese sandwich for some time, from adding rainbow dye to getting extra cheese in by replacing the bread with fried macaroni and cheese patties -- and now the asparagus grilled cheese exists. This somewhat simpler approach to a suped-up sandwich is a clever way to get an extra serving of greens into your diet while also incorporating seasonal produce.
Created by blogger Jessica Merchant of How Sweet It Is, the asparagus grilled cheese recipe is more gourmet than it looks, as it is made with brown butter and dijon mustard. You will also need to add a garlic clove, use havarti cheese and sprinkle some parmesan on top to get the full effect.
