Sun-Dried Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandos

with Balsamic Arugula Salad

Nostalgia has a name, and it’s grilled cheese! Relive the glory of the melty, toasty classic with this grown-up take on everyone’s favorite sandwich. The addition of umami-packed sun-dried tomato aioli brings surprising new depth to the elevated combo of mozzarella and cheddar between slices of buttery toasted sourdough. Cap off your meal with a side salad of peppery arugula dressed in tangy-sweet balsamic vinaigrette.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Wash and dry produce.

    In a small bowl, whisk together sun-dried tomato paste, mayonnaise, and ⅛ tsp garlic powder (¼ tsp for 4 servings) until combined. (Be sure to measure the garlic powder—we sent more!)

  2. 2

    Lay bread out on a clean work surface.

    Spread one side of each bread slice with aioli.

    Evenly layer half the bread slices with mozzarella and cheddar; top with remaining bread slices, aioli sides down, to form sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Heat 2 TBSP butter and a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat.

    Add sandwiches and cook, gently pressing with a spatula, until bread is golden and cheese melts, 2-4 minutes per side, adding an additional 1 TBSP butter when flipping. TIP: Work in batches if necessary, adding more butter if needed; lower heat if browning too quickly.

  4. 4

    In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tsp balsamic glaze and 2 tsp olive oil (4 tsp balsamic glaze and 4 tsp olive oil for 4 servings); season with salt and pepper. (Be sure to measure the balsamic glaze—we sent more!)

  5. 5

    Add arugula to bowl with vinaigrette; toss to coat. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

  6. 6

    Halve sun-dried tomato grilled cheese sandos on a diagonal; divide between plates. Serve with salad on the side.
