An agreeable marriage of the grilled cheese sandwich and fresh guacamole, which went quite nicely with Fire Roasted Tomato Soup! DH found it very satisfying and a nice change from both pain grilled cheese and our standard quesadillas. I made a minor change in that I used Colby Jack cheese instead of cheddar cheese, but no other changes made and DH liked that the guacamole was not too spice for his taste. Thank for the post.
