The best grilled cheese sandwich I have ever had, bar none. I loved the flavor of the 3 cheese together. The maynnaise-dijon adds a tangy taste. I made half with ham and half without for my family's differing preferences. These are wonderful, easy to make and very filling. Thanks Nurse Di.

Wonderful! Easy! Yummy! Instead of grilled cheese sandwiches, we made quesadillas. Another thing that's great about the cheese mixture is that it can be made far in advance of when you need it. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

You are right, these are the bomb!! I did not add the ham, just because we didn't have any and I was too lazy to go to the store. The cheese blend and mayonnaise-dijon are what make this sandwich so yummy and a stand-out from the usual grilled cheese. My family and I think they deserve more than 5-stars. Thanks for sharing this one. It is most definitely a keeper.
