It was Easter Sunday and the family had left trail of Peanut Butter Eggs, and headless Chocolate Bunnies all the way back to Gardner. I was racking my brain trying to think of an Easter themed Grilled Cheese. I considered using Peeps, incorporating the delicious but deadly Cadbury Egg, somehow using Jelly Beans without having them melt. I even thought about going out in search of Rabbit meat. But it was Easter Sunday and I had already had a few beers to celebrate the Zombie Holiday. Then I thought, "What would someone want to eat after being dead for three days in a cave? Specifically what kind of Grilled Cheese Sandwich would Jesus want?" I'm guessing by the geography of the whole event he may go for some Hummus, maybe some olives and Bread Of Affliction. I know I would be turning anything into wine right away. Then I thought, "That's stupid, he's the "Son Of God" he doesn't need to eat anything!" So I thought about what I would want after rising from the dead. I immediately thought of Beef and Beer.
I found this amazing Beer and Brown Grainy Mustard Cheese at Trader Joe's. I added that to some rare roast beef with some thinly sliced Purple Onion on Pumpernickel Bread. While this is not visually exciting, it was heavenly. It had a kind of Bavarian feel to it. This cheese is perfect with the Pumpernickel. I imagine it would resurrect my taste buds after being dormant for three days. The Roast Beef would also give my system some much needed protein to get me going to spread the message of the miracle of Grilled Cheese.
