Love grilled cheese sandwiches? Love mushrooms? Then you’re going to need to make this mushroom sandwich, which beautifully marries the two. Whether you call it a mushroom melt or a mushroom grilled cheese, you’re going to devour it. With sautéed mushrooms and onions covered in deliciously gooey melted cheese in a toasty sandwich, this is as close to grilled cheese sandwich perfection as you can get!

To make 4 mushroom sandwiches, heat half of the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Reduce heat to low. Add remaining oil and onions to the skillet and cook, stirring, until onions are well caramelized. Set aside.

Spread the outside of each sandwich with a thin layer of Cabot Salted Butter. Assemble sandwiches, dividing cheese (Cabot Lite50 Sharp Cheddar or Cabot Muenster or Cabot Swiss Slices),mushrooms and onions equally.

Place a large skillet over medium-low heat and add the sandwiches. Cook slowly until sandwiches are golden on the underside and cheese is beginning to melt, reducing heat if browning too quickly. Turn over and cook until golden on the second side and cheese is completely melted.
