🧀 Classic Grilled Cheese Sandwich

---

Ingredients (for 1 sandwich):

• 2 slices of good bread (white, sourdough, brioche, or whole wheat)

• 2–3 slices of cheese (Cheddar, American, Swiss, or a mix)

• 1–2 tbsp butter (softened) or mayo (for the outside)

---

🔥 Instructions:

1. Butter the Bread:

   • Spread butter (or mayo) on one side of each slice of bread.

2. Assemble:

   • Place cheese slices between the unbuttered sides of the bread, so the buttered sides face out.

3. Grill:

   • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.

   • Place sandwich in the pan. Cook slowly for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing lightly, until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

4. Serve:

   • Slice in half and serve hot. Great with tomato soup or pickles!

🧠 Pro Tips:

• Low & slow is key—rushing it risks burning the bread before the cheese melts.

• Try cheese combos: Cheddar + Mozzarella, Gruyère + Fontina, etc.

• Want extra crunch? Add a sprinkle of Parmesan to the buttered side before grilling.

• For added flair: add tomato slices, bacon, caramelized onions, or even a touch of hot honey inside.
