ingredients

2 slices bread
5 tablespoons olive oil
¹⁄₂ cup cheddar cheese
1 small red apple
¹⁄₄ cup pecans
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon pepper
¹⁄₂ tablespoon ground red pepper (optional)

directions

Finely chop pecans and place in a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of oil, or just enough to make pecans stick together to form a spread. Add 1 tablespoon of salt & 1 tablespoon of pepper. I add 1/2 tablespoon of red pepper to the mix.
Shred 1/2 cup of cheddar. Cut an apple, you'll need about 8 thin slices.
Heat frying pan to medium heat. Pour in enough oil to lightly coat the bottom of the pan. Place in 2 slices of bread.
Put 1/4 cup of cheese on 1 side of bread. Top with apple slices. Top with remaining cheese.
On other slice of bread, spread the pecan spread.
Let your sandwich cook until the breads brown & crispy. Put your slices together & eat up! Yum!
