Diner Grilled Cheese
This used to be the common practice in the US, not sure if diners still do this.
Ingredients
- 2 slices sandwich bread, of your choice
- 1 slice Cheddar cheese, or slices from a block to cover the bread
- mayo, as needed
Instructions
- Heat a small skillet to medium heat.
- Use mayo on the bread like you would butter. Spread mayo on two slices of sandwich bread, place first slice mayo side down in the pan, place the cheese on top of that, place other slice of bread on top, mayo side up.
- Cook for just a few minutes until gold brown, flip, cook the other side until golden brown, enjoy.
Notes
Low cost. Keep in mind, this calls for mayo, not Miracle Whip or fat free mayo, just mayo.
Variants: 1. Add some grated Parmesan cheese to a small amount of mayo and use that. 2. Use Gouda (my preference) or any sliced cheese of your choice. 3. Add a slice of ham or smoked ham. 4. Use two slices of cheese and one slice of ham, with the ham in the middle.
