If I had to choose one food to live on the rest of my life it would probably be a grilled cheese! I mean it fills my three of my favorite food groups – cheese, bread, and butter!? Seriously y’all there are SO many endless ways to make a mouthwatering grilled cheese sandwich!
I highly recommend making this brie, fig, prosciutto grilled cheese. It’s by far my new favorite! This sandwich can really be taken up a notch by using lightly buttered sourdough bread. The combination of the tart sourdough matched with the sweet fig preserves is a match made in heaven! Not to mention the creamy brie and salty prosciutto. Buttering the outside of the sandwich will create those pretty grill marks when using a panini press! If you don’t have a panini press this sandwich can easily be grilled in a small skillet over medium heat.
