Grown-up Grilled Cheese
8 slices of high quality, delicious bread
1 c soft cheese like brie, or cream cheese
1 c cheddar cheese
1 c parmesan cheese
mayo

Combine the cheeses into a tasty paste. Divide the cheese paste and spread on four slices of the bread. Top the cheese with the other slices of bread. Spread mayo on the outside of the bread and grill in a medium hot pan. Whilst the first side is grilling, spread mayo on the top of the sandwich. Flip once the bottom slice is golden brown and grill the other side. Slice on the diagonal and serve with amazing delicious creamy tomato soup.



To spice up your life, and your sandwich, add some tasty ingredients to your mayo before spreading on your bread: roasted garlic, pesto, spicy brown mustard. It will take incredibly good grilled cheese, to out of the galaxy grilled cheese.
