I have a kitchen now, so naturally the first thing I make in it is grilled cheese.

But not just any old grilled cheese.  A gourmet grilled cheese straight from the delicious food stylings of Mara from M Loves M.  I saw her recipe for this Gruyere Grilled Cheese with Sauteed Shallots and knew that after an extended period of time in the UK where grilled cheese is not quite the highly regarded staple that it is in America, I had to try this out.  So I did, and guess what?

Bombdiggity.
