Learn the secret to making the best grilled cheese sandwich!

📝 Ingredients

  • 2 slices bread (we prefer multi-grain)
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp grated parmesan
  • 3 slices cheese (we use a variety of cheeses, including mozzarella which give that great cheese pull.)
  • 2 slices pickle (optional, but highly recommended)
  • 1 tbsp butter

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Spread mayonnaise on one side of each of your bread slices.
  2. 2Sprinkle parmesan: Sprinkle the grated parmesan evenly over the mayonnaise and press down with the back of a spoon so that the cheese sticks to the mayonnaise.
  3. 3Melt butter: Melt the butter over medium heat in your non-stick skillet.
  4. 4Assemble sandwich: When the butter has melted, add one slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, into the center of your pan. Add the 3 slices of cheese and the pickles and then top the the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side up.
  5. 5Cook: Press down lightly with the back of your spatula. Cook on one side for approximately 2 - 3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 - 3 minutes.
  6. 6Cook: Your sandwich is ready when the bread is toasted and browned and your cheese has melted.
  7. 7Transfer and cut: Transfer to a cutting board and slice in half using a serrated knife.
  8. 8Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy!
