This delicious sandwich marries applewood smoked bacon, sautéed brussels sprouts and sharp Cheddar cheese on a crispy multigrain crust. Serve with dill pickles and chips.
½ c. bagged shaved brussels sprouts, sautéed lightly, (Trader Joe's, Green Giant, Archer Farms)
2 slices multigrain sliced bread
butter flavored canola oil spray
½ c. sharp Cheddar, shredded
2 slices uncured applewood smoked bacon, cooked
Spray one side of each slice of bread with butter flavored canola oil; place sprayed-side down on a clean working surface.
Divide cheese; pile evenly on each slice of bread. On each slice, place 2 bacon strips. On one slice, add the sautéed sprouts; carefully sandwich the 2 sides together.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot. Place the sandwich on the skillet; reduce heat to medium-low; after about 1 minute, cover with a large lid; let cook for 2-3 minutes more, until bottom is golden brown. Flip sandwich over; cook for 3-4 more minutes, covering again after 1 minute to encourage the melt, until bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melting.
Transfer to a cutting board. Cut in half. Serve immediately.
