Farm to Table Recipes
Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Bacon and Pear
Ingredients
Springhill English Muffin Bread, sliced
Sandspur Bacon, cooked
Local pear
Sharp white cheddar cheese
Grass Fed Butter, softened and spreadable
Method
1. Heat a cast iron skillet to medium high heat. Layer your sandwich – bread slice, cheese, pear slices, bacon, bread slice. Spread butter over the top of the sandwich. Place the sandwich top side down (butter side down) on the hot pan. Butter the exposed side of the sandwich. Let cook for a minute and then use a metal spatula to turn the sandwich over to its other side.
2 While you are toasting the sandwich on the remaining side, press down on the sandwich with a spatula. Alternatively, you can mimic a panini press (albeit without the ridges) by heating a smaller cast iron pan on a separate burner. Use the weight of this pan to press down on the sandwich from above.
The sandwich is done when the sides are toasted and the cheese is melted. Cut in half and serve.

Joyful Noise Acres Farm: The on-line market is open for ordering.
We have several items of interest so please read on.
Cedar Rock Dairy will increase the price of their milk by $0.50 per half gallon. They are making a 3 hour trek to deliver to the North Georgia area and we are so grateful for the high quality milk they provide.
Good Shepherd Herbals is taking pre-orders for Elderberry Syrup, to be delivered in October. Elderberry is a wonderful immune booster. We start taking a ‘shot’ a day when we start our co-op. You never know who might have a bug to share so this is one of the things we do to boost our systems.
- Joyful Noise Acres Farm* is offering the 2 lb. packages of mild sausage for $1.00 off this week.
Blessings and we look forward to seeing you Wednesday.
