Caramelized Onion Grilled Cheese with Creamy Honey-Mustard Mixed SaladCaramelized Onion Grilled Cheese with Creamy Honey-Mustard Mixed Salad — a 40-minute dinner recipe with 13 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

3 heads butter (Boston) lettuce

1 ½ English cucumbers

1 ½ (227 g) blocks mozzarella cheese

1 ½ red bell peppers

12 slices whole grain bread

3 medium yellow onions

butter, unsalted

Dijon mustard

honey

mayonnaise

red wine vinegar

salt

Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Peel, halve, and thinly slice onions into half-moons.

Preheat a large pot over medium heat.

Once the pot is hot, add butter and swirl to coat the bottom. Add onion and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, place mayo, honey, water, and Dijon in a large bowl; whisk to combine the dressing.

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Trim ends of the cucumbers; quarter lengthwise, then slice crosswise into ¼-inch thick pieces. Add to the bowl with the dressing.

Trim, seed, and medium dice bell peppers; add to the bowl and set aside.

Grate mozzarella.

When the onions are done, add vinegar and Worcestershire to the pot, stir to combine, then remove from the heat.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat.

While the skillet heats up, place the bread slices on a flat surface. Evenly top half of the slices with the onions and mozzarella. Cover the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices.

Once the skillet is hot, add butter and swirl to coat the bottom. Cooking in batches if necessary, place sandwiches in the skillet and cook until the bottoms are golden brown, 2-4 minutes.

While the sandwiches are cooking, chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and transfer to the bowl with the dressing and veggies. Toss to combine the salad.

Remove the sandwiches to a plate and add more butter to the skillet; return sandwiches to the skillet, browned-side-up, and cook until golden brown on the other side and the cheese is melted, 2-4 minutes more. Once done, transfer to a cutting board and slice in half.

To serve, divide the salad and sandwiches between plates. Enjoy!
