Thanks Kittencal for posting. We made this for a quick , cozy lunch and it was delicious. Everyone wanted more than one sandwich. Instead of American we used cheddar and instead of putting the butter on both sides of the bread we put mayo on both sides (just family personal taste preference) reserving the butter for just the pan. Thinly sliced tomatoes are great and on some sandwiches we added some ham. Another winner! Enjoy! ChefDLH

Very yummy grilled cheese sandwich! We used white whole wheat bread, 2 slices sharp cheddar cheese, and sliced the tomatoes thinly. LIked the mayonnaise a lot on the sandwishes. Served with Andi of Longmeadow Farm's Recipe #333005 and fruit cocktail for lunch today. Made and reviewed for KK's Top 25 tag game.
