Best.grilled.cheese.EVER!
 

I was watching Oprah the other day when they did a special on the best sandwiches in America and I was inspired to try a grilled cheese like this one:

Oh my! The basil and the honey made something magical! I only had mozzarella, and I used fresh whole wheat bread that I made with my new grain mill (woohoo!) and it is the most amazing sandwich. I have a basil plant in my kitchen, so I plucked a few of the leaves off of there and sliced up a fresh tomato. It was heavenly.

I think I need to go make another one.

:yum we eat that a lot in the summer when we have fresh tomatoes. It's one of hubby's fave meals.

:ot How do you get basil to grow indoors?

Re: Best.grilled.cheese.EVER!
 

Its just growing in a container on my windowsill. It is very happy there. I have a little makeshift herb garden just above my sink.

Wow - that's a neat link for basil growing! I didn't know basil can be frozen!!!

BTW I saw that mouth-watering sandwich and fell in love too!!! Haven't tried it yet... since we try not to have dairy in the house (b/c of ds). I wonder if there could be some sort of dairy-free version that could satisify a 2.5 y/o (so I wouldn't have to hear the fit, if I'm eating it in front of him).

I'm thinking about making this for lunch. What should I serve with it? We are NOT big soup eaters in this house, so soup/sandwich is out. :think

cut up fruit or veggies are always a nice side. :rockon Or a smoothie, maybe?
