    Servings and Ingredients

    Ingredients
    Serves 4
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    ¼ c. Hy-Vee canned cranberry sauce
    3 tbsp. Hy-Vee Dijon mustard
    8 (1/2-inch-thick each) slices Baking Stone marbled rye bread
    8 oz. cheese curds, divided
    4 slice(s) smoked Gouda cheese, divided
    4 oz. deli-sliced oven-roasted chicken breast, divided
    2 oz. fresh spinach leaves, divided
    4 tbsp. Hy-Vee butter, softened

    Directions

    1. In a small bowl combine cranberry sauce and mustard and spread on each slice of bread. Top each of 4 slices of bread with one-eighth of the cheese curds, 1 slice of Gouda cheese, 1 ounce chicken and one-fourth of the spinach leaves. Top each with one-fourth of the remaining cheese curds and 1 bread slice. Spread both sides of each sandwich with butter.
    2. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook each sandwich for 2 minutes or until bottoms are golden. Turn sandwiches over; cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes or until bottoms are golden and cheese is melted. (Adjust heat as necessary to prevent overbrowning.)
