There's nothing I like better than a quick lunch and this is it! The best part is that it seems like a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich, but kind of like you're eating dessert.
I've made this sandwich before a few times, but there's an extra little kick in this one: chocolate mint! Our neighbour is growing a ton of it and offered some to me so I snuck a couple leaves in for fun.
By the way, this is kid-approved! I made this sans-mint for Leo and Mila a while back and they loved it.

Recipe: Grilled Pear & Goat Cheese Sandwich with Honey & Chocolate Mint
- 2 slices of bread (I eat thin rye bread from Dimpflmeier, but thick and crusty French bread would be amazing here)
- 1.5 oz of goat cheese
- 4-8 thin slices of pear
- A drizzle of honey
- A couple leaves of chocolate mint
- Oil for grilling
- Spread goat cheese on both sides of the bread - don't be shy! Use lots!
- Layer the pear on one slice of bread
- Drizzle with honey & top with mint
- Grill!
- If you have it, use coconut oil in your pan. It's super yummy with this sandwich!
- I used two mint leaves and it was a tad much. I really liked it, but if you just want a taste go with one.
- I used my cast iron pan, but I've also used my panini press which is fun because you get nice grill marks.
Enjoy and let me know if you make it!
