GRILLED CHEESE ROLL-UPS

Y’all, I’ve been having a hard time getting my brain (and my schedule) on back-to-school mode. I feel like I struggle with that balance of coming up with new or different lunch ideas and also figuring out what is for dinner every night. Also, I have major Instagram envy of the Moms and Dads who can manage to make those cute little bento-style lunches where they cut out hippos and Harry Potter out of cheese slices. I’ve never been able to do that. And honestly, I don’t think I have the patience. But hey, power to the parents who can and do.

TWIST ON GRILLED CHEESE AND TOMATO SOUP

We are major grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup eaters. These go great with my Easy Tomato Soup recipe. There is nothing like dipping a grilled cheese into some warm tomato soup, right? This recipe for Grilled Cheese Dippers was made for just that purpose! I’m also gonna let you in on my secret ingredient for taking grilled cheese sandwiches over the top!

INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)

• your favorite bread
• American cheese
• softened butter (or margarine)
• mayonnaise
• serve with: tomato soup

HOW TO MAKE GRILLED CHEESE DIPPERS:

Remove crusts from slices of bread. Please note, this is totally optional. If your kids love the crusts, just skip this part.

Flatten out each bread slice with a rolling pin or the palms of your hands.

Place one American cheese slice on each flattened bread slice.

Now, there’s two ways you can roll this up. You can roll it up from one of the corners…

…or roll it up from the long side. Continue with the remaining bread and cheese.

Next, mixed together the softened butter and mayonnaise. The mayonnaise is not only going to give it amazing flavor but it helps to give it a pretty golden brown color too.

Coat each grilled cheese dipper with this butter mayo mixture. Heat up a non-stick pan over low-medium heat. A nonstick pan is super important here. If any cheese oozes out, it will be easy to wipe up. Also, you never want the pan super hot when making grilled cheese because you don’t want the outside to get brown before the cheese has even had a chance to melt.

Then, place grilled cheese dippers in a lidded container. No need to reheat these as they will get warm again once they are dipped into the hot soup. 

Cook’s Notes: Short on time? Just make this as a regular grilled cheese sandwich and slice it into four vertical slices. Perfect for dipping and quick to whip up!
