Dinner Tonight: Grilled Cheese Sandwiches With Sauerkraut On Rye Recipe

• 1 1/3 cups sauerkraut, drained
• 8 slices dark rye bread
• 2 1/2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
• 8 thin slices Gruyere Swiss cheese
• German mustard (optional)

1. Warm sauerkraut in a small saucepan set over low heat.
2. Spread the butter on one side of each slice of bread. Flip the slices over and place two slices of cheese on four of the slices. Divide the sauerkraut between the slices of bread with cheese, and then top with another slice of bread, buttered side up.
3. Place a large skillet or griddle pan over medium heat. Add as many of the sandwiches as will comfortably fit. Cook until lightly browned, and then flip and brown on the other side. By this point, the cheese should be melted. Repeat process with remaining sandwiches.
4. Slice the sandwiches in half and serve with a little mustard on the side.
