Yummy lunch! I made it for myself and used light mayo and light cheese on homemade whole wheat. Thanks, Juenessa!! :)

YUMMY My husband was MMMmmmming the entire meal. I used Wasabi Horadish Mayonnaise for a little kick. I think next time I will use mozzerella insted of cheddar - I think it would go better with the wasabi horsradish flavor.

We did like this, very nice flavour combination. I was disapointed though because it didn't turn brown nor did it puff up. I followed the recipe exactly except that I used whole wheat English muffins instead of hamburger buns, which I'm sure didn't make a difference. I will try it again. thanks for posting.
