Once you learn how to make grilled cheese with this easy recipe, the possibilities for jazzing up your grilled cheese sandwiches are endless.
Just remember: The better the ingredients, the better your grilled cheese sandwich will be. Try to use fresh sourdough, Italian or French bread. Good-quality cheese makes a big difference, too. If you grate the cheese yourself, it's even better.
