The Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich Ever!

The grilled cheese sandwich may seem simple, but if you don't have the patience to cook on low heat and use the right kind of bread you can end up with burnt bread stuck to the skillet. After many trials and errors, I've finally come up with the perfect sandwich - easy to make and delicious!

Ingredients:

2 slices of sturdy sourdough bread
1 slice of sharp cheddar cheese
1 slice of jack cheese
1 teaspoon vegetable cooking oil
Butter (to spread on slices of bread)
Garlic Salt (to taste)
Oregano (to taste)

Instructions:

Take the bread and spread butter on the sides that will be facing outwards (ie, not the part where the cheese will be). Dash a little garlic salt on the butter, as well as some oregano. Layer the cheese slices inside. Heat a medium sized skillet with vegetable oil. When hot, place the sandwich in the skillet carefully, so that the cheese stays in place. Let cook on low heat for about 2 min. Flip carefully and cook the other side for 2 more minutes.

The grilled cheese is especially great with this tomato soup recipe!
