Classic Grilled Two-Cheese

This is back to the basics and a classic.  It's great to serve with creamy tomato soup in the wintertime.

Servings: 4


Ingredients:

  • Preheated Panini Grill on Medium or Large Skillet
  • (8) Slices White or Whole-Grain Bread
  • 2 Tbsp. Butter or Margarine
  • 4 oz. Muenster Cheese, Thinly Sliced
  • 4 oz. Cheddar Cheese, Thinly Sliced

Directions:

  • 1.  Brush one side of each bread slice with butter.  Place on a work surface, buttered side down.  Top 4 bread slices equally with Muenster and Cheddar cheeses.  Cover with remaining bread slices, buttered side up and press gently.
  • 2.  Place sandwiches on preheated panini grill or in a large skillet over medium heat and cook, turning once if using a skillet, for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted.  Serve immediately.
