  1. I made this for my husband and I and was a bit disappointed since I love all the ingredients listed. I wasn't a huge fan of the pickles on there so ended up picking them off. I'd make it again, just without the pickle.
     
  2. Hello Mary, we had these sandwiches yesterday and they were soooo good - that if I had my way I'd have it again, today! The pickles were optional for most of the people - and instead they used crushed red pepper flakes just a pinch mixed in with the Dijon mustard! Awesome!! Thanks for posting, Manami :)
     
  3. What a yummy sandwich! I really enjoyed it with the pickles! Thank you!
     
  4. I just love this sandwich so much. It has three of my most favorite ingredients for a grilled cheese sandwich - the gruyere, sweet onion and pickle! Just delicious. You can't go wrong with this sandwich if you love these ingredients. Thanks for posting.
     
  5. Delicious gourmet lunch today!! I loved the blend of the flavors - nuttiness from the cheese, sweet onion, a little sour from the pickle, and crisp bread. Thanks for the great recipe, Mary!!

I have two boys who will usually eat most things I put in front of them. As a single mom I use them as my guinea pigs....sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have a huge garden, blueberry and blackberry bushes. I am always looking for a new recipe. I have three cats (Xiao Mao, which means little cat in Chinese, Pumpkin and Max) and two border collies, Lucy and Grace. All my animals come from Rescue Agencies. <a href="http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/?action=view¤t=rsc002.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/rsc002.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/lucyatpoppys005.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"><a href="http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/?action=view¤t=006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><a href="http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/?action=view¤t=hilfiger001.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k217/winecoff8902/hilfiger001.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">
