Roast Beef Panini

I think I'm in love with Gouda Cheese.  Not the smoked Gouda but the regular Gouda.  I'm not sure why it took me so long to discover it,  but now that I have, I can't get enough. I love the way it melts...  Oooie Gooey Delight-fullness. It's good on crackers, it's good in grilled cheese sandwiches and it's good with roast beef, so thanks Gouda for inspiring me to make this yummy Roast Beef Panini!

      

 

  

1.Spread 1/2 of the Mayonnaise Mixture on One Slice and 2 Tablespoons Apple Jelly on the other Slice.

2. Top with 1/4 cup Shredded Cheese.

3. Arrange 1/4 Cup Arugula Evenly.

4. 1/4 Lb  Roast Beef.

5.  Arrange Two Tablespoons of the Caramelized Onions Evenly.

6.  Top With Another 1/4 Cup Shredded Cheese.

  

7.  Carefully Put Two Slices Together and Spread Top and Bottom with Butter. ( I like to Softened the Butter in the Microwave for about 12 Seconds and Brush it on the Bread.)

8.  Grille Until Golden Brown.
