Grilled Cheesey Goodness

Alright...I'm not gonna lie...there were a few things on the hot-lunch menu at school that I did enjoy...a lot. Grilled cheese was prob number one on that list. It was always soooo crispy...perfect for dunking into piping-hot tomato soup.

I could never figure out how to get mine so toasty, though...we always used a pan on the stove to make it. Then...one glor.i.ous day...I tried making it in the oven for a change-of-pace. To my wonderment...this is the perfect method for making the most delicious grilled cheese your mouth has ever tasted!

Couldn't be easier, either...

*What you'll need: bread, cheese, margarine. Now...this is just what I had on hand...totally legit grilled cheese ingredients. We have made "grown-up" sammies w/ provolone & colby jack cheeses, tomatoes (seeds removed) and spinach...or you can add ham, etc. This nite...I was rockin it old school...

*Pretty simple simon stuff here...butter one side of each slice of bread...put some cheese in the middle. Prep = done. Then, pop your soon-to-be-delish sandwiches into a 400 degree oven (10 minutes per side)...

*Voila...a meal that takes me back to good ol' Southeast Polk High School lunch in the lower level (only some folks will get this reference). Now...I would only eat this with tomato soup...but the hubs doesn't like it--say what?!? So...the pic is w/chicken noodle...good...but really only reminds me of having a cold...

Here's to the perfect grilled cheese sandwich...cheers!
