A grilled cheese sandwich is one of the simplest and most satisfying comfort foods you can make—crispy on the outside, gooey and melty on the inside 🧀
🥪 Basic Ingredients
- Bread (white, brown, or sourdough)
- Cheese (cheddar is classic, but mozzarella or processed slices work too)
- Butter (or mayonnaise for extra crispiness)
🔥 How to Make It
- Butter the bread
Spread butter on one side of each slice. - Add cheese
Place cheese between the unbuttered sides of the bread. - Cook on pan
Heat a pan on medium. Place the sandwich and cook until golden brown (2–4 minutes). - Flip & repeat
Flip and cook the other side until crispy and the cheese is melted. - Serve hot
Slice and enjoy!
😋 Optional Add-ons
- Tomato slices 🍅
- Caramelized onions
- Cooked chicken or beef
- Chili flakes or black pepper for a kick
💡 Tips
- Cook on medium-low heat so the cheese melts without burning the bread
- Cover the pan briefly to help the cheese melt faster
