My All Time Favorite Grilled Cheese Sandwich

FavoritePinShare

You will never cook another grilled cheese sandwich again after you try this one! It’s deliciously cheesy on the inside, and once you sink your teeth into that crispy outside, it is absolute perfection! Who doesn’t love a delicious grilled cheese sandwich? And trust me when I say that this one is the best of the best. But what is a grilled cheese without some delicious tomato soup to dip it in? Try this tomato basil soup, this classic fire-roasted tomato soup, or this deliciously creamy slow cooker tomato basil parmesan soup. They pair perfectly with this grilled cheese!

The BEST Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe

You are about to be let in on THE best cooking secret of the year. Normally, i rate most grilled cheese sandwiches on the same level. After all, there isn’t too much that you can do to make them different… right? WRONG! This grilled cheese sandwich is not only toasted to perfection, but the flavor is to die for! It melts in your mouth and leaves you wanting to devour the whole entire thing. So what is it that makes it so delicious? It’s the mayo. Yep, you read that right. If you are still slapping some butter on the outside of your bread before you cook it, then you are missing out! This sandwich uses mayonnaise that has Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and a little bit of salt to make this literally the best grilled cheese sandwich that I have ever had!

Ingredients In This Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Lucky for you, this recipe only requires a few ingredients. Most of which you probably already have on hand! That’s what makes this sandwich a go-to for me (and my kids!) at least a couple of times a week! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

White Bread: This recipe called for 8 slices of bread so that you can make 4 sandwiches. Cheddar Cheese: My favorite cheddar to use is Tillamook. You can also use American cheese, Monterey jack cheese, or mozzarella cheese! Mayonnaise: You can use this from a store-bought jar, or you can make it at home using this easy recipe! Garlic Powder: This is a MUST for this recipe. I mean, you can never have enough garlic, but it pairs so well with all of the other flavors! Italian Seasoning: Trust me, you will want to make this from scratch using this recipe. Coarse Salt: The salt enhances all of the other flavors and gives the sandwich a little bit of extra flavor.

How to Make the PERFECT Grilled Cheese Sandwich

My mouth is watering even just thinking about how delicious this sandwich is! You are never going to go back to any other way of making a grilled cheese sandwich after you try out this one!

Use Medium Heat: I know that it’s tempting to cook it at a higher heat to make the process go faster but don’t do it! The trick to grilled cheese is to not have the heat too high. Cooking it at medium heat helps to melt the cheese without toasting the bread too fast. It also helps to add a lid to cover the cooking sandwiches. This helps trap the heat and melt the cheese as well.Fresh Slices of Cheese: I like to slice my cheese straight from the block rather than buying pre-sliced cheese. It melts more quickly and I think it tastes better too!

Storage: Once your grilled cheese has cooled then, you can place it in an airtight container and store it in your fridge. It will last about 2-3 days. How to Reheat: When you are ready to reheat it, don’t use your microwave. It will be soggy, not crispy at all! Reheat your sandwich on the stove. Cook it on medium heat until your sandwich is warmed through.
