Brie & Balsamic Strawberry Grilled Cheese (Low FODMAP)
This recipe is a spin on the classic grilled cheese using a great low FODMAP cheese option - brie cheese! In this low FODMAP grilled cheese recipe, we've paired mild-flavored brie with balsamic vinegar, strawberries, and basil for a bit of acidity, tarteness, and freshness.
Servings: 4 sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 8 slices sourdough bread or gluten free bread of choice
- ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
- 150 grams brie cheese, sliced into 1/4 inch sliced
- margarine or butter
Instructions
- Slice strawberries and add to a medium bowl. Add maple syrup and balsamic vinegar. Stir well to cover all the berries.
- To assemble sandwiches: Butter one side of each slice of sourdough. This will be on the outside of each sandwich to help with browning the bread. On the non-buttered side, evenly spread some balsamic strawberries, followed by some chopped basil. Lay the sliced brie evenly across the top. Close the sandwich with another slice of sourdough - buttered side outward. Repeat to make 4 sandwiches.
- Heat a frying pan over low-medium heat. Grill the sandwiches for about 2 minutes per side or until golden brown and brie is starting to melt. Serve hot!
