I have another grilled sandwich to share with all of you this week. This Smoked Gouda and Roast Beef Grilled Cheese uses smoked gouda for the cheese – which I LOVE! It has a nice creamy and smoky flavor. It works so well to really up the flavor of a grilled cheese sandwich.
Next, this sandwich also includes roast beef and caramelized red onion. Caramelized onions are an awesome thing to use on any sandwich. When you make some, make a lot and keep them in the fridge for when you want some. It adds such wonderful level of onion flavor that isn’t too over powering along with some sweetness. The addition of sage to these caramelized onions just adds a whole other level of savory flavor.
