Pesto & Gouda Grilled Cheese

October 26, 2015 by BobandShan

Pesto & Gouda Grilled Cheese - Gooey, herby goodness, sandwiched between two fresh pieces of sourdough bread.

Grilled cheese is kind of my thing, or rather, kind of used to be my thing. On my previous blog, BS’ in the Kitchen, I was somewhat renowned for grilled cheese. In fact, I dedicated an entire month to them, posting a new one each day. Maybe I overdosed, or maybe my tastes have grown, but for whatever reason, I don’t make many these days. Looking at these pictures, I’m thinking that may need to change! Gooey Gouda, nutty basil pesto, sandwiched between two pieces of homemade sourdough bread. It’s the stuff dreams are made of. At least my dreams… I think it’s time to add a few more “grown-up” grilled cheese sandwiches to the blog.

There’s not much to it, but when you’re using delicious ingredients, you really don’t need much!
