8 large pieces of crusty bread (I used a sourdough miche bread, and YUM)

2 teaspoons dried thyme

4 large portobello mushrooms, thickly sliced

salt and pepper, to taste

1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

oven

grill pan

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

In a medium-sized bowl, toss mushrooms with olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated with oil. Spread seasoned mushrooms on a large baking sheet, making sure there is plenty of room between each piece. Bake mushrooms at 400 for 15-20 minutes, until they've browned and crisped up a bit.Remove roasted mushrooms from the oven and set aside. Butter one side of each piece of bread. Place four pieces of bread, butter side down, on a large grill pan or skillet. Don't heat it up yet!Spread a spoonful of goat cheese across the non-buttered side of each of the four pieces of bread we just talked about. Top the goat cheese with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, followed by a few slices of roasted mushrooms, and then a handful of mozzarella cheese. Turn the burner under the skillet on to medium. Place the last four pieces of bread, butter side up, on top of the last layer of cheese to form your sandwich. Keep an eye on the sandwiches as they cook. When the bottom piece of bread has browned up nicely (about 5-7 minutes, depending on how hot your pan is - I like to keep mine on medium-low so the cheese melts niiiiiice and slooooow) flip the sandwich to toast the other side of the bread. Remove grilled cheeses from the pan, slice in half, and serve immediately.

Food Joke

One Sunday morning George burst into the living room and said, "Dad! Mom! I have some great news for you! I am getting married to the most beautiful girl in town. She lives a block away and her name is Susan. After dinner, George's dad took him aside, "Son, I have to talk with you. Look at your mother, George. She and I have been married 30 years, she's a wonderful wife and mother, but, she has never offered much excitement in the bedroom, so I used to fool around with women a lot." "Susan is actually your half sister, and I'm afraid you can't marry her." George was brokenhearted. After eight months he eventually started dating girls again. A year later he came home and very proudly announced, "Diane said yes! We're getting married in June." Again his father insisted on another private conversation and broke the sad news. "Diane is your half sister too, George." "I'm awfully sorry about this." George was livid! He finally decided to go to his mother with the news his father had shared. "Dad has done so much harm. I guess I'm never going to get married," he complained. "Every time I fall in love, Dad tells me the girl is my half sister." "Hee hee," his mother chuckled, shaking her head, "Don't pay any attention to what he says. He's not really your father."
