An Open Faced Sandwich of Kasseri, Spinach and Pomegranate
Author Notes: I'll admit this is the first time I have ever made anything with pomegranate or pomegranate molasses, but this little sandwich with melted kasseri cheese, spinach and a sweet/tart pomegranate vinaigrette was extremely satisfying. - inpatskitchen
Makes one sandwich
For the pomegranate vinaigrette
