Cheeca Lodge’s Signature Lobster Grilled Cheese

For this grilled cheese recipe, which serves four, mix 2 Lbs Cooked Maine Lobster Claw & Knuckle Meat with 4 oz Creole Mustard Remoulade and mix till all ingredients are incorporated. Add salt and pepper to taste. Toast eight slices of buttered sourdough bread preferably on a flat top, and then add 2 slices of brie cheese or enough to cover one slice of the bread. Add 8oz of the lobster salad on the other slice and place under the salamander/broiler until the cheese begins to soften. Place the cheese end on top of the lobster then slice in half. Here are some extra ingredients to add to your remoulade if you're feeling zesty!! 1 gal Mayo, ½ tub Sour Cream, 3 cups Creole Mustard, 3 Tbs Sriracha, 1 cup Sweet Pickle Relish, Zest/juice from 5 Lemons, Zest/Juice from 3 Limes, 1 cup Chives (finely chopped), 8 dashes Worcestershire, cup Capers (chopped)

For the Creole Mustard Remoulade, combine 1 cup mayo, 2 tablespoons grainy or Creole mustard, 1 clove of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon creamed horseradish, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley in a small bowl. Refrigerate until needed (I like to let the flavors sit for a while, but you can serve it immediately).

Finally, for the Key Lime Cilantro Aioli Recipe, combine 1/3 cup fresh chopped cilantro, 1 Key lime's juice and zest, 1-3 drops of hot pepper sauce, depending on preference, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 3/4 cup mayonnaise, and 1 large clove of garlic in a small food processor (or blender) and mix until blended. (via Cheeca Lodge)

This trio of flavors is a classic combo that will never go out of style. Make sure you use extra sharp cheddar and thick-cut bacon to get as much flavor as possible out of your sandwich. (via Jeanie and Lulu’s Kitchen)

Bacon + Cheddar Egg in a Hole

Lucky for you, your favorite childhood breakfast just became a grilled cheese. No, we’re not talking about a cinnamon toast crunch grilled cheese (although that does sound delicious).

Sometimes it’s all in the name. #YUM (via Half Baked Harvest)

Bacon + Fig

You can’t go wrong with a little pig and fig! The fig jam offers a subtle sweetness welcomed by the salty bacon and goat cheese. Use a hearty wheat bread to complement the earthiness of the filling. (via The Merry Thought)

You Won't Be Able To Resist These Grilled Cheese Recipes!

Grilled Nutella + Brie + Pear + Fig

News flash: Grilled cheese doesn’t have to be savory! Brie is the perfect cheese to use if you’re planning on going the dessert route because of its mild flavor. Go big and slather it with a spoonful of Nutella for good measure. (via Cake N Knife)

Lasagna Grilled Cheese

This may take a *little* extra effort, but it’s way worth it. Plus, it’s hard to justify making an entire lasagna when you’re the only one who’s eating. This way, you can have lasagna whenever you want. (via Joanie Simon)

Hot Muffuletta Sandwich

Pueblo Chile + Strawberry Jam

Roasted green chiles offer a gentle heat that’s in no way overpowering to the rest of the sandwich. In fact, they play quite well with the strawberry jam and buttery cheddar. Welcome to comfort food central. (via Set the Table)

Raisin Bread Grilled Cheese

Sometimes simplicity is best. While this grilled cheese recipe has no crazy ingredients in the filling (just cheese!), the raisin bread is a welcomed change from standard white bread. (via The Worktop)

Steak + Mushroom

The leftover steak lingering in your fridge needs to be repurposed in the form of this grilled cheese. If you don’t have any or don’t feel like grilling a batch just for this sandwich, roast beef would work too. (via The Cozy Apron)

Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken Grilled Cheese Sandwich

This Thai popcorn chicken is SO worth every second it takes to prepare. When layered between toasted bread with a sweet chile sauce, it’ll pretty much make all of your worries disappear. (via Curious Nut)

Tomato + Provolone + Kalamata Olive Chutney

There’s something about an olive that just adds a little extra oomph to anything you pair it with, and this grilled cheese is no exception. Store-bought olive tapenade would work as a time-saving alternative to the homemade chutney. (via Cake N Knife)

Waffled Tater Tot Grilled Cheese

That freezer-burned bag of tater tots sitting at the back of your fridge is *finally* about to fulfill its epic destiny. The only other ingredient in this show-stopping grilled cheese is Fontina, which gives it just the right amount of class. (via Real Food by Dad)

Grilled Cheese Recipes Everyone Will Want A Bite Of
