BAKED GRILLED CHEESE
My family loves grilled cheese so when they asked for it I wanted to try something new. This was the best grilled cheese, nice crunchy bread with melted cheese. I had to post this so I wouldn't forget it. Family loved it served with homemade milkshakes and fries. This is a great way to make a bunch at one time and the clean-up was nothing. ;)

Tips
- Use thick-sliced bread. This will help the sandwich hold together better and prevent it from becoming soggy.
- Choose a cheese that melts well. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Gruyère are all good options.
- Butter the bread before grilling. This will help the sandwich brown evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Cook the sandwich over medium heat. This will help the cheese melt slowly and evenly.
- Flip the sandwich halfway through cooking. This will ensure that both sides are cooked evenly.
- Serve the sandwich immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include soup, salad, or fruit.
