The Ultimate Spicy Cheddar & Apple Fall Veggie Sandwich
Description
This sandwich features two slices of sourdough bread toasted until lightly browned. One side is topped with sharp cheddar cheese and melted under the broiler. Pickled jalapeños add a spicy note layered atop the melted cheese. The other slice is spread with grainy Dijon mustard and drizzled with honey, providing a balance of tang and sweetness. Thinly sliced honeycrisp apple and red onion contribute crispness and mild sharpness respectively, while fresh arugula adds peppery greens. Finally, kettle-style potato chips add a salty, crunchy texture inside the sandwich. The sandwich is gently pressed to meld all the flavors and textures before slicing. The combination of spicy, sweet, crunchy, and savory elements reflects a seasonal fall flavor profile.
Ingredients
- 2 lices sourdough bread or your favorite bread
- 1-2 ounces cheddar cheese sharp, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard grainy
- 1-2 teaspoons honey
- 10 lices jalapeños pickled
- 5-6 red onion thin slices
- ¼ apple honeycrisp, thinly sliced
- ½ cup potato chips kettle style
- ¼ cup arugula
Instructions
- Place both slices of bread on a small baking sheet and broil on high in the oven for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned. (Watch carefully so it doesn’t burn!)
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven and turn the sliced bread over. Cover only one piece of bread with sliced cheddar cheese, then return the pan to the broiler for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- Remove the pan from the oven and top the melted cheese slice with pickled jalapeños. Spread the plain slice of bread with dijon mustard, then drizzle on honey. Top with apple slices, red onion, arugula, and kettle chips.
- Carefully close the sandwich and gently press down until the chips crunch. Slice in half and enjoy!
Notes
- You can add slices of your preferred meats such as honey or maple ham, turkey, or leftover pulled poultry to increase protein content.
- Feel free to customize the sandwich by adding other toppings or spreads as desired.
