Chard and Mushroom Toasted Cheese Sandwich

January 6, 2021 Filed Under: Meatless Main Courses

Chard and Mushroom Toasted Cheese Sandwich will take your grilled cheese sandwich to healthier and more flavorful heights.

I love grilled cheese sandwiches, but sometimes you’ve just got to make a grown up version.

For this one, I used Rainbow chard from my favorite CSA. Swap it for Swiss chard, spinach or any other softer green. Or use a hardier green like kale or collard and cook both the leaves and stems a bit longer.

For the sauce, I used a wonderful applewood smoked horseradish sauce. You might prefer a nice spicy mustard, or a tame sauce like mayonnaise.

This takes a little longer than your basic grilled cheese, but I think you will like the combination of flavors and textures.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bunch chard
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • ½ onion sliced in strips
  • 4 ounces white or button mushrooms sliced
  • 4 ciabatta sandwich rolls
  • 4 slices cheese (1-2 ounces each) such as provolone, swiss, or cheddar
  • creamy horseradish sauce to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut the stems from the chard and chop finely. Chop the leaves in strips.
  • In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook 4-5 minutes until beginning to turn brown.
  • Add the chopped chard stems and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms begin to sweat and soften.
  • Add the chard leaves and cook until the chard is soft.
  • While the chard is cooking, place the ciabatta roll halves on a broiler pan face up. Put a slice of cheese on the bottom halves.
  • Broil on high until the cheese is melted and bread is toasty, 4-5 minutes.
  • Place bottom half of roll on a plate, top with ¼ of the chard mixture and add horseradish to taste. Top with other half of the bun and serve.
