grilled-cheese-snap-peas.jpgI needed a quick side dish to put with my “gourmet” grilled cheese, so I tried the Snap Peas with Mint. This recipe takes about 10 minutes max. I bought the 1/2 pound pre-washed organic snap peas so it went even quicker. The mint gives it a really fresh and unexpected taste. Now the Mango Chutney Pepperjack Gourmet Grilled Cheese recipe is super easy and tastes amazing – Martha only wishes this was her recipe! :) All you do is use pepperjack cheese instead of cheddar and instead of mayo or butter or whatever it is that you put on the inside of your grilled cheese sandwich, substitute for mango chutney. Easy as pie, er, grilled cheese.

Diet Leave out the butter in the Snap Peas recipe. Go easy on the cheese (thin slices) for the grilled cheese and “grill” in olive oil.

Vegan Leave out the butter in the Snap Peas recipe. Use vegan faux cheese and “grill” in olive oil.

Ingredient List: butter (or olive oil), snap peas, mint leaves, salt, bread, pepperjack cheese, mango chutney.
