After I was scrounging through my fridge I decided on the following ingredients to make these delicious little suckers.



 Ingredients:

-1 french baguette, thinly sliced
- real butter
- white truffle oil
- goat cheese
- caramelized onions







After you've got everything out, go ahead and spread a thin coat (or a thick coat depending on your taste and/or drunkness level) of goat cheese on each slice.


Next, plop a spoonful of caramelized onions onto one side of each sammie.  This step is kind of tricky because those caramelized onions are just too damn good not to compulsively destroy.


Hopefully you were able to avoid eating too many onions and had enough to fill your GC's. If so, go ahead and put on the other slice on top. If not, tell some of your friends to go home.


Then, put some butter on each side and turn the skillet up to medium heat and you'll be good to go!


Done? Ok! Throw these little devils into your pan.


Since these are so small and goat cheese is already so soft, they only take a 1-2 minutes on each side. After a nice, golden brown crust has developed flip it and spray/drizzle the truffle oil onto the crispy side.  I believe that spraying the oil on at this step allows it to hold the most flavor and the retaining heat allows the bread to stay crispy and crunchy.


When the other side is also browned, take 'em off the skillet and serve immediately!


Oh, and make sure to tell your friends to breathe between bites!

Like most of us, my sweet tooth gets out of control A LOT. Additionally, like most of us, I had never really thought of a grilled cheese as something sweet to eat at the end of a meal. After this, my mind changed, and hopefully after you try this, your mind will change too!



So, what makes this sweet and salty combo so dang good?



Ingredients
-cinnamon raisin bread
-goat cheese (capricho de cabra goat cheese is what i used)
-real butter
-sliced almonds
-(optional - tupelo honey)

After I got all my ingredients I went ahead and spread a heaping amount of goat cheese to each slice of bread. Depending on your fondness to this tart cheese, use as much as you'd like. I LOVE IT, so I laid it on heavily.



Next, I added a layer of the sliced almonds (If you'd like you can add the honey at this point. I totally would have but I ran out). Then stick'em together!





After that, butter that baby and stick it on your skillet with the burner set to medium heat.



As this little guy heats up the butter will start to sizzle and the cinnamon sugar from the bread will caramelize and become extra yummy and pretty.



After it's nice and golden on each side and the goat cheese has softed, go ahead and pull the sammie off the skillet. You're going to want to slice it as quick as possible because it just smells so damn good.



Don't forget to share!
