Ingredients for 4 Cheese Grilled Cheese
How to Make the Perfect Grilled Cheese
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. I love using a cast iron skillet when making grilled cheeses. It gives them an extra crunch factor.
Start out by spreading the outside of the bread with a little mayo. Make sure the whole surface is completely covered to ensure it gets evenly crispy.
Put the bread mayo side down to assemble the sandwiches. Spread one slice of the sandwich with cream cheese then sprinkle with sharp cheddar, pepper jack and colby jack cheeses.
Put the top piece of bread, mayo side on the outside to assemble. Grill the sandwich until golden brown on the outside and melted to gooey perfection on the inside.
A New Family Favorite
I can think of so many reasons to make this grilled cheese. Need an easy dinner? 4 Cheese Grilled Cheese.
Snow day? You always need a grilled cheese (it’s tradition here at our house).
Kids having a sleepover? I don’t think I’ve met a kid that wouldn’t love this sandwich.
What to Have with Your Grilled Cheese
If you want to go the traditional comfort food route, tomato soup is definitely the way to go.
This is my favorite tomato soup. The recipe calls for tortellini which you can keep for more carby goodness or leave out for soup dunking perfection. Your call.
If you want to add some veggies to the meal, this salad with all the fall vibes is a great side option.
