Saturday BBQ | Chicken, Brie & Apple Sandwich
Another hot day in the city. Time to fire up the grill, get the cold drinks ready and tackle this beautiful summer night with a delicious dinner and full stomach.
Since falling in love with the blueberries and brie in last weeks salad, I decided to apply the same concept in sandwich form. The result a sandwich that was sweet, tart, and creamy. Thanks to jam, apples and cheese. Ahhh, it's a thing of beauty. I love a good sandwich! Now off to dip my feet in the kiddy pool, sip on a bevvy and enjoy this night.

2 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp blueberry jam
2 whole wheat buns, toasted
1/2 granny smith apple, sliced
6 - 1/4" slices, brie cheese (w/ rind intact)
