A grilled cheese sandwich is a very rapid snack and easy to prepare. All the college students that can reach a stove, cooking a grilled sandwich is very inexpensive. There are several ingredients to make a grilled cheese sandwich. The main ingredients to a grilled cheese sandwich would be cheese, bread and butter. There are also several extra ingredients that could be added in the sandwich like tomatoes and green pepper.
The cheese: I prefer American cheese because of the nice strong flavor, but cheddar cheese or provolone cheese can also be used to make the sandwich. Mixing the cheese together can also make a great sandwich. Make sure you buy shredded cheese or you will have to shred it yourself.
The bread: depending on what can find in a store, bread type does not affect the taste that much. Using hard bread with plenty of butter makes it a lot easier to grille as apposed to soft bread. If you do not like bread crust like me, then you should cut the crust out.
The butter or oil: depending on your health concerns using olive oil or margarine can be a very good idea. For me as a person that cares about the taste more than health issues I always use butter.
The Extra ingredients: tomatoes, onions and anything you would like to put in there.
