  1. Yum! I loved the contrast between gooey and crisp in this sandwich. I made a couple changes to accommodate what I had on hand. I used wheat bread as we don't buy white. And I used a slice of cheese inside instead of shredded because I wasn't going to have enough shredded for 2 sandwiches and DH wanted one too. This is almost a five star recipe. The only things that knock it down a peg are that it's a lot of effort when making a traditional grill cheese is so easy and a bunch of non-melted cheese is lost when flipping the sandwich. But otherwise this is delicious! Thanks!

I'm a 48 y/o gay Jewish man in the suburbs immediately north of New York City. I'm a general internist, practicing and teaching at a medical college north of NYC. I also earned a Masters in Public Health degree in 2013. After a Walt Disney World trip in Dec 2006 where I had to rent an electric scooter because I couldn't manage the walking, I decided to have gastric bypass surgery, which was done Feb 28, 2007. I lost 160 lbs (though I've gained back about 60 of that since). I can't eat as much as I used to, so I want every bite to be extra good!
