Toasted Ham and Cheese Supreme

Crafty Lady 13's Note:

A step up from the usual grilled ham and cheese sandwiches, these are made with ham, cheddar cheese, red onion, horseradish sauce and mayonnaise. You can serve these flavorful sandwiches by themselves for lunch, or a simple dinner. For a heartier meal, serve them with steaming bowls of soup, stew or chili.

• Total Time: 15 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 8 slices white bread
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 6 ounces thinly sliced deli ham
• 4 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 slices red onions, separated into rings
• 2 tablespoons horseradish sauce
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened

Directions:

1. Spread four slices of bread with mayonnaise. Layer each with the ham, cheese and onion. Spread horseradish sauce on remaining bread; place bread with horseradish side down over onion. Spread butter on the outside of each sandwich.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, toast sandwiches for 4 - 5 minutes on each side or until bread is lightly browned and cheese is melted.

This was fabuous - DH was jealous as I made him something else for this weekend's lunch, and he loved the look of this. I did not share ! The onion and horseradish add just the right amount of "bite" to the sammy - I used gluten free bread and provolone cheese as it's my preference. Nice variation of a long-time family favorite. Thanks for posting - made for Spring PAC 2012.

Wow, what a great grilled cheese sandwich this was. Perfect comfort food, ooey gooey and full of flavor. I loved the addition of the horseradish and onion. I used a sweet onion, it was what I had on hand, it worked perfectly in this recipe. Thanks for sharing a recipe that I will make often, Crafty Lady.

I love a grilled cheese sandwich, there is just something comforting about them! I loved the added bite from the horseradish! I only had white onion, so I used that. Also, I used a mix of sharp and mild cheddar. Great sandwich. Thanks for sharing. Made for I Recommend tag.
