Strawberry and Blueberry Grilled Cheese with White Cheddar



















A server brought this idea to work and the first thing we thought was why white cheddar? I thought brie would play so well with the berries. So we made one with brie and it was just ok, so we tried the cheddar and it was so much better. I was a little disappointed in the brie but the cheddar nailed it.

Ingredients-
1 1Lb package Strawberries tops cut off and quartered
1 6oz pack blueberries
1Lb shredded White Cheddar
2 Tbl Balsamic Vinegar
3 Tbl Sugar
2 Tbl Olive Oil

Directions-
1. In a medium saute pan over medium heat add strawberries, balsamic and sugar and saute for 8-10 minutes. Taste it and make sure you like it add more sugar if you like it really sweet.Turn on oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium saute pan over medium heat add olive oil and blueberries saute for 4-6 minutes or until you see little blue spots in the oil this means your berries are cooked.
3. On one piece of bread butter one side or use mayo, add your blueberries and as much cheddar as you like. Put it in the over until the cheese is gooey, take out of oven. Butter and add strawberries to the other piece of bread, don't add a lot of strawberries because the bread gets soggy.
4. In a large saute pan over medium heat add your piece of blueberry bread and your strawberry bread, cook for a minute or so. Add the strawberry bread to the other piece and remove from heat and plate it with what ever sides you like... enjoy!
