GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES
A quick comfort meal at my house is always tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. Since DH and I are both 50+, I feel that _perhaps_ we may be ready for a more grown-up version of this meal. Let's start with the sandwich. If I don't get _fired_ over this, I'll tackle the soup next. ;-)

MOM'S GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH
This is the grilled cheese I grew up with and I think it leaves all the others far behind. Just a few tweaks but when I've tried the more classic bread, cheese and butter on the outside it so boring. Hope you like this. We usually jazz it up further with chopped cooked bacon and chopped tomato.

- Place the other slice of bread on top of the onion, Miracle Whip side down.
- Butter the outside of the sandwich.
- Grill 4 or 5 minutes until cheese is melted and bread is brown and crunchy.

Tips for Making the Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich:
- Use high-quality bread. Artisan bread, sourdough, or a hearty whole-grain bread will give your sandwich a better flavor and texture than plain white bread.
- Butter both sides of the bread. This will help the sandwich brown evenly and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or fontina cheese will melt smoothly and give your sandwich a delicious flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you're making multiple sandwiches, cook them in batches so that they have enough space to brown properly.
- Cook the sandwich over medium heat. This will help the cheese melt evenly without burning the bread.
- Flip the sandwich once. This will ensure that both sides are cooked evenly.
- Don't overcook the sandwich. The cheese should be melted and gooey, but the bread should still be slightly soft.
- Serve the sandwich immediately. Grilled cheese sandwiches are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the pan.
Conclusion:
The grilled cheese sandwich is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect grilled cheese sandwich every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
