Ingredients
  

For the Base
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread Swap for gluten-free bread if needed.
For the Filling
  • 1-2 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese Opt for vegan cheese for a dairy-free option.
  • 1 tablespoon Grainy Dijon Mustard Yellow mustard can work as a milder alternative.
  • 1-2 teaspoons Honey Maple syrup serves as a great vegan substitute.
  • 10 slices Pickled Jalapeños Consider omitting for a milder flavor.
  • 5-6 slices Red Onion Replace with green onions for a mellower taste.
  • ¼ apple Honeycrisp Apple Any crunchy apple variety will do.
  • ½ cup Kettle Potato Chips Use your favorite crunchy snack for unique texture.
  • ¼ cup Arugula Spinach or other greens can be utilized as substitutes.

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • oven broiler

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preheating your oven broiler to medium-high. Lay out two slices of sourdough bread on a baking sheet and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  2. Remove the baking sheet and flip the bread slices over. Place 1-2 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese on one slice and broil for another 1-2 minutes until melted.
  3. Take the slice with the cheddar and layer it with 10 slices of pickled jalapeños. On the second slice, spread 1 tablespoon of grainy Dijon mustard and drizzle honey over it.
  4. Place thin slices of honeycrisp apple over the mustard layer, followed by 5-6 slices of red onion and a handful of arugula. Sprinkle ½ cup of kettle potato chips on top.
  5. Carefully place the cheese slice on top of the assembled toppings, pressing down gently. Slice the sandwich in half diagonally and enjoy!
