GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES
A quick comfort meal at my house is always tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. Since DH and I are both 50+, I feel that _perhaps_ we may be ready for a more grown-up version of this meal. Let's start with the sandwich. If I don't get _fired_ over this, I'll tackle the soup next. ;-)

GRILLED CHEESE DE MAYO
This is a nice change from your usual grilled cheese. It's made with mayo on the outside in place of butter and pepperjack cheese. It's a grilled cheese with a kick. Feel free to use your favorite cheese combination. To make it kid friendly leave out the pepperjack cheese.

MY HUSBAND'S FAVORITE GRILLED CHEESE & GREEN OLIVE SANDWICH
Have you been thinking, lately, that you really need more green olives in your diet? Of course you have! This is just one of my husband's food brainstorms. He comes up with wonderful ideas for *me* to make. Isn't he sweet? I've started to notice a pattern: most of them involve green olives, or garlic, or both!

GRILLED TOMATO AND FETA SANDWICH
With perfectly toasted, crisp bread, a slightly warm feta filling, and slices of juicy ripe tomato, this might be the best tomato sandwich I've ever had! The combo of briny feta and sweet tomatoes is amazing. Serve with chips and a cold glass of Pinot Grigio.
