I Heart Cheese Sandwiches and Weekend Herb Blogging!

I really do love cheese sandwiches. In the summer time, I love to have a cheese sandwich made from a couple of slices of American cheese or Munster cheese with lettuce, tomato and mayo (mustard with the Munster cheese) on bread.

In the wintertime, I especially prefer grilled cheese sandwiches.

There’s nothing like a good ole grilled cheese sandwich. Gooey, warm and delicious cheese stuck on the bread (usually white bread and a tomato slice).

What a perfect sandwich to eat on a cold day after a blizzard (which is when I made it)! I loved my sandwich!

While some may think cheese sandwiches are boring, there are many who feel the opposite. In fact in New York City’s lower East side, there used to be a very popular place (called Grilled Cheese NYC) that specialized in different kinds of healthy cheese sandwiches. Their sandwiches ranged from the classic grilled cheese sandwich to cheese sandwiches with meat and vegetable combinations. Unfortunately for many hungry New Yorkers, it recently closed due to extreme rent hikes. Very sad. It isn’t the only popular eating establishment in the city that’s had to close for the same reason.

Last year, Michèle made a delicious sounding and looking Pear and Brie Croque Monsieur that I’d planned on making but never got a chance to do. I think it’s time I pulled out that recipe again.

Thanks to Kalyn and her brother for the really cool cheese sandwich banner. The reason for it can be found here. And thanks for pulling together all the wonderful herb-blogging posts from around the world, Kalyn. Each weekend, I learn something new. Love ya lots!
