March, 2012 – Grilled Cheese Variations
This is a recipe I am allowed to make all by myself because I can use really low heat and still get the same result. You will be delighted to find a sweet ingredient which makes this salty snack that much more yummy!
Pair it with a strawberry smoothie or raspberry tea and you’ve got a healthy and easy to make treat!
Ingredients:
2 Slices of American, Cheddar or Swiss cheese
2 Slices of white bread
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon honey
Spread the honey on each slice of bread. Put the cheese between the slices of bread. Have your helper heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet or grill and when melted add the sandwich. Gently press down with a spatula once or twice during the grilling. When one side is golden, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, turn the sandwich over, and brown.
Grilled Cheese with Bacon.
Fry 3 slices bacon until cooked but not crisp. Pat dry of excess fat, add on top of the cheese, and grill as directed.
Grilled Cheese with Ham. OH HONEY!
Put 2 thin slices ham on the cheese and grill as directed.
