Notes
Don't shy away from experimenting with different types of bread for unique flavor combinations. Sourdough, rye, or even a hearty whole grain bread can add depth to your grilled cheese experience.
If you want to add some heat to this grilled cheese, consider adding some cayenne pepper into the center.
You can substitute the sharp cheddar cheese for your favorite variety, like American, provolone, or even Pepper Jack.
