Spring Mix with Grilled Cheese Croutons
Spring Mix with Grilled Cheese Croutons
Instead of a Grilled Cheese Sandwich try this Balsamic Spring Mix Salad with Sundried Tomatoes and unique Grilled Cheese Croutons!
Ingredients
- Fresh Express Spring Mix
- 4 slices sprouted-whole grain bread (or whole wheat bread)
- 4 slices of reduced-fat cheddar (4 ounces)
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in extra virgin olive oil drained and rinsed, sliced
- Spray butter
Instructions
- Place two slices of cheese on a slice of bread. Top cheese with another slice of bread to form a sandwich. Repeat to form another sandwich.
- Spray both outer slices with spray butter.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add sandwich. Cook until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes, and then flip and cook another 3-5 minutes.
- When finished, carefully place the grilled cheese on a cutting board and let it rest for approximately 5 minutes.
- Carefully cut off the crust. Discard the crust and cut the grilled cheese into large dices (the size of a crouton).
- Place greens and sundried tomatoes in a bowl and toss with vinaigrette.
- When dressing is fully incorporated, portion into 4 salad bowls. Top each salad with grilled cheese croutons.
