Super creamy grilled cheesy

Ugh, sorry for the lack of posts- my work schedule has been so weird lately.  I’m working full time right now, and if you remember how exhausting my job is, then you know by the time I get home I can barely keep my eyes open and I pretty much go straight to bed.  I’m ready for the summer to be over so I can quit!  I think I’ve decided in the fall I’m going try to do some subbing at some local schools.  It will pay more per day than I make right now, plus I would be done by 4:00.  I think it would work pretty perfectly with my fall schedule since I’ll only be going to school on Tues/Thurs.  I have a teaching certificate and I know a lot of schools give preference to substitutes that have them.  We shall see!

Since my last post was about cheese, I thought I’d do another one!  This is my absolute favorite version of a grilled cheese that I’ve ever made!  The hummus makes it so creamy and delicious!!

What you need…

Bread (whatever kind you like, I used a rustic whole wheat)
Earth Balance
Hummus (whatever brand you like- Sabra is my fav)
2-3 Tablespoons of your fav cheese (I LOVE the Daiya Pepperjack for this!)

How to make it…

So just like a regular grilled cheese, you spread your butter on the bread. 

On the non buttered side your going to spread a thin layer of hummus. 

Place it in the pan butter side down (a cast iron skillet makes the best grilled cheeses!!!) and sprinkle on your cheese.

Spread another thin layer of hummus on the non-buttered side of the other piece of bread and place on top (butter side up).

Let it get all crisp and golden brown, then flip it over and do the same on the other side.
