Ingredients
  

4 slices of sourdough bread

4 ounces Gouda cheese, sliced

1 cup mixed mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, button), cleaned and sliced

1 medium onion, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh thyme leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Start by preparing the roasted mushrooms and onions. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

    Add the sliced onions and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook until they are golden and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

      After the onions are done, add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and a little more olive oil if needed. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and any moisture has evaporated. Remove from heat and set aside.

        In a separate skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place two slices of sourdough bread in the skillet when the butter is bubbling.

          Layer half the Gouda cheese evenly over each slice of bread in the skillet.

            Top the cheese with the roasted mushrooms and onions, and then add the remaining Gouda cheese on top.

              Close the sandwiches with the remaining slices of sourdough and press down gently.

                Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

                  Once done, remove from the skillet and slice the sandwiches in half.

                    Garnish with fresh thyme leaves if desired and serve immediately.
