🧀 Grilled Cheese Sandwich – Ooey Gooey Goodness in Every Bite

Simple, comforting, and endlessly customizable. Here's how to nail it:

🛒 Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread (white, sourdough, or whole wheat)

  • 2–3 slices of cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss, or a combo)

  • Butter or mayo (for spreading on bread)

🔥 Step-by-Step Preparation

  1. Prep the Bread

    • Spread a thin layer of butter (or mayo) on one side of each bread slice. Tip: Mayo gives a golden crust and a tangy twist.

  2. Add the Cheese

    • Place cheese slices between the unbuttered sides of bread so the buttered sides face out.

  3. Heat the Pan

    • Use a nonstick skillet or griddle. Set to medium-low heat—slow and steady melts the cheese best!

  4. Grill the Sandwich

    • Place the sandwich in the pan. Cook for 2–4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

    • Press gently with a spatula for even browning.

  5. Serve It Up

    • Let it cool for a minute, then cut it diagonally for classic presentation.

    • Perfect with tomato soup or a sprinkle of chili flakes on top.

🔧 Optional Twists

  • Add thin tomato slices or caramelized onions inside.

  • Try pesto or mustard instead of butter for the outer crust.

  • Mix cheese types—sharp cheddar + creamy Havarti is a win!
