    *Disclaimer - This recipe was originally published in 2014. I'm working hard to update all my older recipes with recipe cards, new photos, and additional recipe information. But, getting to all of them will take time. Please bear with me. In the meantime let me assure you that this recipe is still a winner and one I'm sure you'll be well pleased with when you make it at home.

    With April being national grilled cheese month, I wanted to come up with a sandwich that was both unusual and special. When I told my husband that I was going to make a Prosciutto, Melon & Provolone Grilled Cheese Sandwich, he was less than thrilled...he even said they sounded "gross".

    Fast forward to about half an hour after he'd uttered the "g" word while we were sitting down to lunch. I eyed him suspiciously as he bravely started eating.

    I waited patiently...."WELL?" I asked. "What do you think???"

    "I'm thinking it's a lot better than I thought it was going to be," he said. "I thought the melon would turn into a mushy mess but it actually held its texture better than I thought it was going to." "I like it!" he said. "I think I'll have another."   Needless to say, I was a happy camper! 🙂

    Break out of your pre-conceived notion of what a  grilled cheese should be and try this grilled cheese sandwich. You may even go back for seconds!
