Howdy Hey! It’s Friday and I made you a warm and flavorFUL and melty grilled cheese sandwich today! Also known as *theeeee* sandwich that I will serve leading up to AND in between the Holidays. Also, after school and sometimes during lunch… dinner, too.

I think we’ve already talked about this, but my favorite thing in life, during this time of year, is flavorful and quick, but comforting and delicious, quick snacks and meals. And even though I adore 5 course meals and candlelit dinners, sometimes, nothing else can hit the spot like a good ol’ grilled cheese can.

I’ve been trying to come up with something that I might be able to serve the day before we feast on that turkey, or even the day after. Something easy, something quick, and something good. With all the people coming in and out, and with all the conversations that will take place around the couch, I don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen missing all the fun. Besides, I want to avoid a FOMO episode at all times. I’m picturing a feast of sandwiches in the living room while we all talk and watch the game. I don’t know which game, but any game will do!

I was at Sam’s Club browsing around to see what I wanted to include in my sandwiches when I walked up to the deli cooler and found this brand new product: NatureRaised Farms® Uncured Smoked Sliced Ham. Looking closer, I saw that this particular sliced ham is without antibiotics, and no added hormones or growth promotants. Didn’t take too long for me to pick up a few packages and place ’em in my cart. #EatGoodCleanFun

So when I came back home, I was inspired to make a sandwich with my newfound ham, some crusty Italian bread, lots o’ cheese, apple slices, and apricot jam. Grey Poupon, too!

    I would make a Sicilian meatloaf that would have this ham and motzarella cheese rolled in the meatloaf. My mom used to make it for us when I was young and it was one of my favorite dinners

  2. I love breakfast so I will make an omelet with the Nature Raised Ham, a wedge of Laughing Cow cheese and roasted cherry tomatoes.

    I make something similar to your sandwich. I toast half a everything bagel, then I turn on the broiler, put the ham on top of the toasted bagel, top it with apple and red onion, then I put sharp cheddar cheese on top and broil till the cheese is browning and bubbly. The apple and red onion marry together so well and oooooooh does it taste delicious!!

    I would make a creamy Ham and Potato Soup. Since it is so dang cold, I am all about the soups. Just found your blog and I LOVE IT. Your pictures are amazing, your recipes are simple, hardy and healthy and you are funny to boot.

  5. I would make some “cinnamon rolls”, except in place of the cinnamon and sugar, put ham and cheese. We make them whenever we have company over and they are a hit. Either that, or they are too polite to tell us otherwise!!

  6. I totally agree – quick, easy, and delicious is a must around the holidays! I would definitely make this ham and apple grilled cheese sandwich! Looks so delicious!

    Grilled sandwiches are so good and yours is exceptional. Even that apricot jam adds another fantastic flavor that blends so well.

    Ham, apple and cheese – one of my favorite sandwich combinations. This is a grilled cheese sandwich for the ages!

  10. I was just dreaming up a grilled cheese like this just the other day, but with turkey! Have you had the Panera Sandwich with turkey, apples and cheddar? it’s my fav, and I thought I might try it grilled!
    you’re sandwich has me drooling!!

    YUM! What an absolutely DELICIOUS sandwich! I love the addition of ham and apple to the classic grilled cheese, and I know my entire family will adore this combination of flavors.

  12. Oh I would take rye bread, put some mayo chopped onion, slice ham and them a slice of swiss cheese. Grill this under the broiler until the cheese is slightly brown and THEN ENJOY

  13. oh man, i could spend 50 bucks at sam’s in my sleep!
    i’d make a ham, cheese, and pasta bake–sounds really good right now!

  14. On a cold wet night I like a toasted Ham and Cheese sandwich with a cup of tomato soup. Real comfort food!

  15. This recipe looks and sounds absolutely delicious. I think I would make a ham and gouda cheese Panini!

  16. Since I’m a breakfast fanatic, I love dicing ham into smaller pieces, then frying them up in a little butter. Add some fresh veggies, add whisked eggs and I’m left with the best omelette! This ham would be perfect for my mornings!

  17. i would make a ham and cheese panini with some pesto mayo. I just got a new panini maker and I love it!

    Dice the ham and add to au gratin potatoes made with gruyere! Big green salad on the side with any leftover ham cut into strips and added as well. YUM!

  19. I would make a Hawaiian pizza with the Nature Raised Farms Uncured Smoked Sliced Ham. I make it with the traditional ingredients plus caramelized onions, roasted macadamia nuts, unsweetened coconut, Swiss cheese and add a bit of BBQ sauce to the red sauce for a little zing.

  20. Well, as delicious as that sandwich looks, I think I will be making pinwheels with Nature Raised ham and 2 -3 of my favourite cheeses. Soo easy, sooooo delicious!

  21. Love the idea of adding apples to grilled ham & cheese sandwiches. Can’t wait to try it!! Thanks for the recipe 🙂

  22. This recipe sounds delicious! I love the idea of using apricot jam for a touch of sweetness and the dijon mustard for a bit of tang…..I must try it soon!! I have been on a ham and cheese kick myself, so (besides using NatureRaised ham for this sandwich) I would use the ham for a good old classic ham and swiss on a nice sprouted grain bread with a smear of garlic aioli mustard. Yum!
