Grilled cheese

 Easy food can be tasty


Grilled cheese is an old school easy meal, but you dont have to go straight old school. You can add thin sliced meats like smoked ham, turkey or even pastrami. Today I went with bacon and tomato. Adding some meat makes it more of a meal.

Fry up your bacon first and when it's almost crispy lay it flat on a paper towel to drain the fat.

 Clean your frying pan and leave the heat on medium.

MY PERSONAL PREFERENCE IS BUTTER!!! If your doctor has told you to use low trans fat margarine you should so so, but if you are healthy butter is natural and tastes much better. Margarine can also turn your grilled cheese into a really greasy mess because it's made from vegetable oil.

Butter one side of each slice of bread. Turn two buttered sides against each other so you can put your cheese++ on the sandwich. Lift up your top slice and lay the buttered side down, with the toppings on and put the other slice of buttered bread on top with butter side up. Use a lid to cover your grilled cheese while they fry. This allows the heat to be kept and your cheese will melt. If you do it without a lid you risk toasting the grilled cheese and having cheese that has not melted.
