This delicious pear grilled cheese is a surprising combination that will delight your taste buds! The unique mixing of pears, gouda, and anjou pears has a nice rich, deep flavor with all the goodness of a classic grilled cheese sandwich. The melty cheese is super satisfying, but this sandwich recipe has a more grown-up feel to it. But don’t let that fool you – my kids beg for this grilled cheese recipe too.
Pear grilled cheese
This pear grilled cheese may sound unusual, but it is absolutely delicious! You’ll be surprised. It makes a wonderful fall sandwich when pears are in full season and is a great way to tweak a standby lunch recipe. It has such a nice mixing of flavors and is so satisfying! Like comfort food you never knew you needed! My husbands favorite part of the pear and cheese sandwich is the onion that gets alsmost carmelized in this fantastic new grilled cheese sandwich.Â
