Halloween is right around the corner and i've been trying to come up with some spooky concoctions for a creepy new Halloween Grilled Cheese. Luckily for me, some of my amazing followers (thanks Susan and Mark!) hooked me up with some crazy green pesto gouda from Amsterdam. It was really tasty and it works wonderfully for any late night munchie sesh's and/or Halloween parties!
You gotta see this cheese before we start.... When I was handed this, I was like "WHAT!". I thought it was some weed laced cheese from some coffee shop that they smuggled in, but nah, it's just some serious dank cheese that is colored from the pesto. Coulda been a good story though.
Anyways, now it's time for the other spooktacular ingredients:
- gouda pesto verde
- salted butter
- sliced garlic cloves (sauteed in olive oil)
- julienned sun-dried tomatoes
- organic miche bread
- garlic salt

Once you have everything out, go ahead and put on two slices of the cheese on top of a slice of bread. Once it melts, it'll look like some goopy slimy mess. YAY!

After you explained that the green was pesto based it made my mouth water!! Reminds me of when green and purple ketchup was invented... glad that didn't catch on.

I actually peeled the wax off of this cheese, I guess I should have put that in the instructions! It was a really dark, green, and thick wax but it left an imprint. I usually always take the wax off unless it's something like brie.

Wait, it's alright to keep the wax on the cheese?
