You may need a knife and fork to eat this sandwich. Serve with a side of cranberry sauce and sweet potato chips. For a twist, try Cambozola cheese (a mixture of soft, rich Camembert and zingy Gorgonzola blue cheese) instead of Brie.
- * 4 teaspoons honey mustard
- * 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- * 1/4 teaspoon salt
- * 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- * 1/2 cup trimmed arugula
A good balsamic vinegar makes all the difference in the roasted tomatoes, whose heat will immediately melt the soft Brie. There’s no need to cut the rind off the Brie, since it’s edible.
- * 1 teaspoon olive oil
- * 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- * 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
- * 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- * 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- * 1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
- * 1 tablespoon whole-grain Dijon mustard
- * 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- * 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- * 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- * 2 cups fresh spinach
Use oil from the sun-dried tomatoes to prepare the vinaigrette for this zesty sandwich. Chilled green grapes are a cool side.
6 servings (serving size: 2 stuffed pita halves)

- * 1 tablespoon chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
