Tonight we come upon two years to the day that we arrived here in Colorado to start our new life with the girls and puppies. It was quite a journey to get here to say the least, and has been full of so many adventures and growth ever since.
As I took our girls and their friends to the ever anticipated high school homecoming football game tonight, all spirited out in their glitter, beads and hair bows (coordinated in their school colors of course), I realized once again how quickly time is going by, right before our eyes.
As part of our home alone date night, I tried out this new cheese that I have been hearing and reading about everywhere..and I can never get enough of cheese. It is Halloumi, a Greek cheese which I found at our specialty Cheese Importers store.

Grilled Halloumi Cheese and Tomato Sandwich
Halloumi Cheese (found in specialty cheese case)
1 Roma Tomato, thinly sliced
Canola Oil
Balsamic Vinegar
Olive Oil
1 loaf of your favorite rustic bread ( I really like a kalamato olive loaf)
Fresh Parsley, chopped
Salt
Pepper
Cut bread in 1/2" slices and lightly toast in toaster or on a grill pan.
Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add thinly sliced halloumi cheese and sear 2 minutes on each side or until browned.
Add one slice of the grilled halloumi cheese on toasted bread. Add 2 slices of tomatoes and top with another layer of grilled cheese. Season with a small bit of salt and pepper.
Drizzle the "sandwich" with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Finish off with a sprinkle of the chopped fresh parsley.
Get a knife and fork and your're ready to enjoy!
* I served this little piece of deliciousness as a side dish with my Bourbon Glazed Grilled Salmon, carmelized onions and Butter Dill Sauce.
