Grilled Camembert and Apple Croque Recipe

This sandwich is super easy and quick to make. I’ve made it a few times for the kids and Daddy D since Lent started, and it’s always a big hit!

Ingredients

Sliced French Bread (my favorite is from Walmart’s bakery)

Green Apple, sliced thin

Camembert Cheese, thinly sliced (I often use Brie as well)

Arugula and Spinach mix, Walmart’s organic Marketside brand

EVOO (I use an oil mister)

Make This DELISH No-Meat Sandwich!

Arrange two slices of french bread and layer the cheese, apple slices and arugula mix on top. Set aside. Spray the inside of a medium-sized pan with your oil mister (or coat the bottom of the pan with a thin layer of EVOO). Over medium heat, grill your croque until the first side is golden brown, then flip. (If needed, spray the second side before flipping). Cook until the cheese is gooey and has started to melt. Serve immediately.
