The Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich

National Grilled Cheese Day by Chris Chabot on FlickrSubmitted by Foghorn Leghorn
Serves 1

Ingredients

2 slices of bread (your choice of type) Butter or Margarine in a squeeze bottle
2 slices provolone cheese (from deli is best) 1 slice Kraft American Singles

Directions

  1. Use a small grill like a George Foreman but off brand works just as well. You can also do it the old fashioned way & use a skillet but the counter top griddle is faster. 
  2. Spread the “butter” on one side of the bread on both slices & take both slices of the provolone & put the Kraft American slice in the middle of the provolone. 
  3. Stick the sandwich in the griddle & close the top. When the buttered slice is a little brown take the sandwich out. 
  4. Eat & enjoy.
