This Sun-Dried Grilled Cheese combines it all– chopped sun-dried tomatoes, gruyere cheese, lemony arugula, all on crispy sourdough bread. It’s quick to make and great for a weekday lunch.
This sun-dried tomato grilled cheese was inspired by a wedge of incredible Gruyère I got in Paris. The nutty, melty cheese is grated and spread onto sourdough bread with chopped sun-dried tomatoes and lemony dressed arugula. It is toasted in a pan with a little melted butter until the Gruyère becomes perfectly gooey and savory, creating the most easy and tasty grilled cheese sandwich.
It’s simple but incredibly delicious—one of those grilled cheeses that feels just a little bit special.
If you love this sandwich, you’ll love this Hot Honey Goat Cheese Grilled Cheese, and my Goat Cheese Grilled Cheese with Sun-Dried Tomatoes.
