- Do y'all ever like to have a sandwich for dinner?
0:05
Sometimes I do.
0:06
Do you Theresa?
0:07
- [Theresa] Oh my God, I love a sandwich at dinner.
0:09
- How about you, Eddie?
0:10
- [Eddie] Yes.
0:11
You eat anything that don't eat you first, won't ya?
0:14
(giggling)
0:15
You're kinda like me.
0:16
But, yeah, sometimes I'm just
0:20
would like a sandwich,
0:22
and you know what?
0:24
Sometimes I don't even mind a meatless sandwich.
0:29
So that's what I'm gonna share with y'all next.
0:33
This is another recipe from
0:37
"Cooking With Paula Deen" Magazine.
0:40
It just gives me all kind of fresh new ideas,
0:45
and I love doing the recipes and then
0:50
it might spark a thought to go into another type of recipe.
0:55
Y'all excuse me just one second,
0:56
I'm gonna see, uh oh,
0:59
I forgot I turned that on.
1:01
I just bought a new potato peeler.
1:06
I can't find a decent potato peeler to work that'll work.
1:11
Oo, this one's good.
1:14
This one's a good one.
1:17
And it's one I just bought from the grocery store.
1:20
Now, I'm sure you figured out that this sandwich is gon'
1:23
have apple on it.
1:26
And it is, and this is a Honeycrisp.
1:33
And I'm just gonna peel this.
1:37
- [Eddie] It's not completely meatless is it?
1:39
Because I see a big plate of.
1:41
- [Paula Deen] Well, it's almost meatless.
1:42
- [Eddie] Bacon.
1:43
(laughing)
1:44
- There ain't a big old piece of steak on it, Eddie.
1:46
Or a big old slab of chicken breast.
1:50
So it's got a little pig on it.
1:54
A little pig.
1:56
Apples turn dark very, very quick.
2:00
So if you wanna keep them from turning dark,
2:03
if you're not gon' use 'em quickly,
2:06
I like to put 'em in Fruit-Fresh,
2:10
and it's a powder that you buy from your grocery store.
2:15
And you just mix it with a little bit of water
2:19
and toss your apples
2:25
in the Fruit-Fresh,
2:30
mix with a little water.
2:34
All right, now I'm gonna slice our apple
2:40
into thin strips,
2:47
and we're gon' put it on our sandwich.
2:50
So let's see.
2:54
And you'll need a sharp knife for this.
2:58
See how thin I'm cutting 'em?
3:02
Now, this sandwich you can make as many,
3:06
or as few as you want.
3:11
So I'm just gonna make one
3:15
to share this recipe with you.
3:19
All right.
3:20
I'm using a homemade pepper jelly.
3:25
I love,
3:28
I love making pepper jelly.
3:31
I wish y'all could smell it.
3:32
This is really strong, Theresa.
3:34
- [Theresa] That's why I brought it to you.
3:36
- Actually, somebody made this
3:38
for Theresa for Christmas,
3:41
and she said, Paula,
3:42
I'm not crazy about pepper jelly.
3:47
Well, it shouldn't burn,
3:50
because it's made with like sweet peppers.
3:53
- [Theresa] That's true,
3:54
I think it's just in my head.
3:55
- [Paula Deen] Yeah.
3:57
And you can use
4:00
red bells or green bells.
4:05
So the first thing I'm gonna do is
4:08
slather one piece of this bread
4:14
with pepper jelly.
4:19
I love this just on top of cream cheese, so good.
4:24
All right.
4:29
Now I'm gonna put my apple slices,
4:33
and that's gonna be so crisp,
4:37
and so good.
4:41
Mm.
4:43
And now I'm gonna top it with some cheddar cheese.
4:51
I'm gon' fold that diagonally,
4:56
just so I can
5:00
get it on the sandwich.
5:07
There we go.
5:09
All right.
5:10
The recipe tells you to just
5:12
coat one side of the the bread with a little pepper jelly,
5:17
but I'm actually gon' do both slices because,
5:26
I want for my arugula to have something to stick to.
5:31
Does that make sense?
5:36
Yes.
5:39
I love arugula too.
5:41
All right.
5:41
Now here goes our bacon.
5:53
Perfect.
5:59
Looking good.
6:06
Mm-mm.
6:10
I love arugula.
6:14
Make sure that,
6:19
that cheese is not hanging out too far.
6:23
Okay.
6:27
So.
6:30
We'll slather a little butter.
6:35
A little butter on the outside of this bread.
6:40
And use any kind of bread you want,
6:43
this is a bakery bread.
6:46
So it's really a nice bread.
7:03
So there we go.
7:07
This is
7:10
an over-the-top grilled cheese sandwich, y'all.
7:16
And it's gonna be delicious.
7:19
I remember when my mother would make apple pies,
7:25
she never bought ice cream.
7:27
I don't remember ice cream ever being a part of our kitchen,
7:31
but she would buy that Hook Cheese.
7:37
And I'm sure you've seen it.
7:38
It comes with a red wax on the outside,
7:40
and you can really see it a lot in country stores,
7:45
sitting up there on the meat case, on the meat counter.
7:49
Well, she would cut us a piece of pie
7:53
and put a piece of cheese on that pie
7:55
and put it in the oven and melt the cheese on it.
7:58
So the cheese just went so perfectly with the apples.
8:04
So.
8:07
I've always thought about apples and cheese together.
8:11
In fact, when you go to a party now
8:13
and they gon' have a cheese tray,
8:15
and they gon' have a fruit tray,
8:17
it's always apples and cheese.
8:21
To co-mingle.
8:24
Need to turn that up just a little bit.
8:26
I hear it sizzlin'!
8:31
Doesn't that look delicious?
8:37
So you could use any kinda cheese,
8:41
really any kinda lettuce, but the arugula,
8:48
it's just good.
8:50
And it's got a taste all its own,
8:53
and it kind of almost has like a peppery flavor to it.
8:58
I don't know, but arugula's very good.
9:07
So I'm just scootin' that on around,
9:09
and I wanna,
9:12
I wanna take a peak.
9:14
It's not quite ready to turn yet, y'all.
9:18
All right.
9:18
So I flipped it over, y'all.
9:22
And, oo, turn that down just a wee little bit,
9:26
because that's the side that the cheese is next to.
9:31
So hopefully that cheese will get melted
9:35
on this flip.
9:36
But how pretty is that sandwich?
9:40
- [Theresa] It looks fabulous.
9:42
- Doesn't it look delicious?
9:43
- [Theresa] I love grilled cheese.
9:45
- You do?
9:46
You love grilled cheese?
9:47
- [Theresa] Oh my God, yeah.
9:48
I just love cheese.
9:50
- And say, you like these apple crisps?
9:52
- [Theresa] Mhm.
9:53
I love Honeycrisp apples.
9:55
- [Paula Deen] Mhm, they are good.
9:59
Eddie, would you like a piece?
10:03
Mm.
10:06
The babies came over this morning for a minute.
10:08
I heard 'em out playing, so,
10:11
I went to the door and sure enough,
10:13
there was one of 'em standing there trying to get in.
10:17
And then mom and daddy really don't like 'em coming in here
10:20
because they say the house that we're living in
10:23
is not child proof.
10:26
I said, I never child-proofed any of my houses,
10:29
I just watched y'all.
10:31
- [Theresa] They didn't have the stuff to have childproof.
10:33
- [Paula Deen] Uh-uh, uh-uh.
10:35
So, they came in and I keep a bowl of fruit
10:38
over there on the coffee table.
10:41
And Linton comes in and he picks up an apple
10:44
and he calls its name in Spanish,
10:46
which I don't know what it is.
10:50
And he just proceeded to walk through the house,
10:53
eating that apple.
10:55
And he took it home with him.
10:59
This really
11:02
looks wonderful.
11:04
I'm gon' cut that eye off.
11:08
And I'm gon' come over here.
11:16
Who's hungry?
11:17
- [Theresa] Who.
11:18
- You?
11:20
Come on, sister.
11:28
All right, there's you a piece,
11:31
here's Eddie a piece,
11:32
and there's me a piece.
11:34
(laughing)
11:35
No, let's give that one to Eddie
11:37
and I'll take the little one.
11:38
- [Theresa] This looks so good.
11:40
- Doesn't it look delicious?
11:44
All right, there you go, Edwin.
11:46
- [Theresa] These are good flavors.
11:48
- Mhm, mhm.
11:49
- [Theresa] Oh, I like this pepper jelly.
11:51
I might have to take it back.
11:53
- Take it home with you,
11:54
because I've got pepper jelly.
11:57
In fact, we carry pepper jelly in our stores.
12:05
I don't know why you would think pepper jelly is hot
12:07
because it's like said,
12:09
made with sweet bell peppers.
12:12
I mean, you could add some hot to it if you wanted, but,
12:16
isn't that yummy?
12:17
- [Theresa] Mhm.
12:20
- Mmm-mm-mm.
12:23
- [Theresa] They have to try this.
12:24
I mean, this is really like, I mean,
12:26
not that I don't love all of our recipes,
12:27
but this is really good.
12:28
- Mhm.
12:31
- [Theresa] So Different.
12:32
- Mhm.
12:34
And I could actually do without the bacon.
12:39
And really make it meatless.
12:46
Although, the pig is pretty good!
12:48
(chuckling)
12:50
Well, I hope y'all will try this,
12:51
because between the arugula, the pepper jelly,
12:56
and the cheddar cheese,
12:58
the flavors just all say,
13:00
eat meat, eat me.
13:03
So I hope y'all will eat it.
13:06
Love and best dishes, y'all.
13:08
See y'all tomorrow.
