01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

1 ½ cups coleslaw mix ½ cup bean sprouts 8 thick slices (3/4 inch thick) sourdough bread 3 tablespoons margarine, softened 3 tablespoons honey mustard 6 ounces sliced Havarti cheese

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by mixing the coleslaw and bean sprouts together in a medium bowl. Next, spread margarine on one side of each bread slice. On four of the slices, spread honey mustard on the opposite side of the margarine. Pile the coleslaw mixture and some cheese on top of the honey mustard. Then, place the remaining bread slices on top, with the margarine side facing out. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the sandwiches for about 2 minutes on each side, until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted. Enjoy while it’s warm and gooey!

Cook's tip

- Use a non-stick pan or sandwich press to get even browning.
- Press the sandwich gently while cooking to help the cheese melt faster.

Storage & leftovers

If you have leftovers, wrap the sandwich tightly in foil or plastic wrap and store it in the fridge. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet to keep the bread crispy. Avoid microwaving directly, as it can make the bread soggy.
