directions

  • In a food processor or blender, puree raspberries with honey, mustard and balsamic vinegar. Adjust seasonings to taste.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of bread. On two slices, spread raspberry puree on the unbuttered side. Place in skillet, buttered side down.
  • Spread 1/4 of the grated cheese on each slice of bread, spreading out to edges. Place half the apple on each slice, and top each with half the remaining cheese (half the cheese on each sandwich, layered bread - puree - cheese - apple - cheese).
  • Top each with one of the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up. Press down with a spatula. Turn heat down to low, cover loosely and cook 5 minutes.
  • Carefully flip sandwiches over. Cook, uncovered, another 5 minutes. If bread is not browned enough, continue to cook, flipping at one minute intervals, until cheese is gooey and bread is browned. Serve with a salad dressed with remaining raspberry sauce.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013. After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
