Bacon & Honey Mustard Grilled Cheese

A quick and easy lunch or dinner!
Prep Time10 minutes minutes
Cook Time15 minutes minutes
Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

  • 8 slices bacon, cooked until crispy
  • 2 Tbsp butter, softened
  • 3 Tbsp honey
  • 3 Tbsp yellow or Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 8 slices sharp cheddar cheese
  • 8 slices whole wheat bread
  • Fresh fruit, as side dish

Instructions

  • Cook the bacon in a skillet, then set aside and pat dry. Drain off the excess bacon grease.
  • While bacon is cooking, butter the outsides of the bread bread and make the honey mustard. Whisk together the honey and mustard in a small bowl.
  • Generously spread the honey mustard onto the insides of the bread. Then add a slice of the sharp cheddar cheese to each bread, add the bacon in the middle, sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of the bacon, and then put together into a sandwich.
  • Grill in the same skillet or on an electric griddle. Flip carefully to prevent bacon from sliding out!
  • Serve Bacon, Honey Mustard Grilled Cheese with fresh fruit.
