Yummy Grilled Cheese
The key to a great grilled cheese is adding mayonnaise, instead of butter to the outside of the bread. This gives it a great crunch, without the sogginess or greasiness butter leaves. These can be made with or without the tomato’s, and usually ready in 5-10 minutes.

Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices Italian bread (really any bread should work)
- 1/2 tbs mayonnaise
- 2 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 grape tomato’s, sliced
Instructions
- Start by heating a skillet over medium heat.
- Spread the mayonnaise over 1 side of each of the bread slices, this will be the side exposed to the heat.
- Once the skillet is heated, place mayonnaise side down on the skillet for both slices.
- Place each piece of cheddar cheese on each bread slice
- Add the tomato’s to only one bread slice.
- After about a minute, place the bread slice, without the tomato’s on top of the tomato half, making the sandwich.
- Mash the sandwich together with a spatula, and let cook for an additional minute.
- Now flip and cook the other side for about 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Serve immediately. Goes best with a bowl of tomato soup.
Notes
Pro tip – Cutting the sandwich diagonally, creates maximum dipping in tomato soup.
