Bacon & Honey Mustard Grilled Cheese Fingers
Ingredients:
8 slices bacon, cooked until crispy
2 tbsp butter, softened
3 tbsp honey
3 tbsp yellow or Dijon mustard
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
8 slices cheese
16 slices wholemeal bread
Method:
Cook the bacon in a skillet, then set aside and pat dry. Drain off the excess bacon fat.
While bacon is cooking, butter one side of the bread. Make the honey mustard by whisking together the honey and mustard in a small bowl.
Generously spread the honey mustard onto the unbuttered side of 8 slices of bread. Then add a slice cheese on top of the honey mustard, top with bacon and sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top of the bacon. Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side out.
Cook in the same pan as the bacon, or in a sandwich press.
Cut each sandwich into fingers to serve.
Make these sandwiches a meal by keeping them whole and serving with a side salad.

MOO Tortilla Chips

Method:
