Cash Store's Grilled Ham, Brie & Pear Sandwich

I had this at The Davenport Cash store, which is north of Santa Cruz, CA. While everyone's dish was good, they all wanted bites of mine! Luckily it was easy to duplicate at home. I've used other breads, but I think a quality white sandwich bread best lets the flavor shine through. I've also baked several (at about 400 degrees, til golden browned) and then cut into quarters for appetizers at a brunch.

Soooo good! I love treating myself at home, with a gourmet sandwich for lunch! I'd be proud to serve this to friends and family! I enjoyed the salty ham, tempered with the sweet, crispy pear and the oozing goodness of brie! I did use Hawaiian bread, as it is what I had on hand....WOW...10 stars in my book! Wish I'd thought of it, but so glad I found this...going in my Best of 2011! Thanks so much for sharing, DeeCooks!1Reply

Yum! The kids even liked it. I used very creamy brie, so I left out the mayo. I also used a small loaf of fresh multigrain bread instead of white. I did not have any pears, so I used apples instead. You could modify this sandwich any way that suits you fancy. They made great little appetizers.1Reply
