Categories     Lunch

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup fresh dill fronds
1 cup fresh parsley leaves, loosely packed
1 clove garlic
¼ cup walnuts
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ lemon, juiced
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon cabot unsalted butter, softened
2 slices sourdough bread
½ cup Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese, finely shredded
1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the pesto: Add the dill, parsley, garlic, walnuts, salt, and lemon juice to a high-powered blender or food processor and pulse, scraping down the sides as needed, until roughly chopped.
  • Turn the blender or food processor on medium speed and slowly pour in the olive oil, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. Blend for 1-2 minutes, until the pesto is smooth. The pesto will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Make the grilled cheese: Spread one side of each slice of bread with ½ tablespoon butter, then spread ½ teaspoon pesto on top of the butter on each slice.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the pan, then spread with ¼ cup (10 g) pesto and top with the Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese. Cover with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and and cook for 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
  • Sprinkle with the dill and serve.
  • Enjoy!

This grilled cheese is okay, but it's not my favorite. I think I would have preferred a more traditional grilled cheese with just cheese and butter.

The garlic in this grilled cheese is a bit too strong for me. I think I would have preferred it if I had used less garlic.

This grilled cheese is a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it if I had used less butter.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my grilled cheese didn't turn out very well. The cheese didn't melt evenly and the bread was too soggy.

This grilled cheese is a great way to use up leftover pesto. I always have a jar of pesto in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I'm not a big fan of dill, but I still really enjoyed this grilled cheese. The garlic pesto is so flavorful that it overpowers the dill.

I made this grilled cheese for my kids and they loved it! They said it was the best grilled cheese they've ever had.

This grilled cheese is the perfect comfort food. It's cheesy, garlicky, and herby. What more could you ask for?
