Any type of cheese can work in these little Grilled Cheese Dippers. Try combinations of cheddar, Muenster, mozzarella, or Swiss for kids that don’t like spicy foods, and add a slice of Pepper Jack cheese if they do.
Ingredients:
- 8 tsp. margarine, softened
- 8 slices whole wheat bread
- 4 slices American cheese
- 4 slices Muenster cheese
- 2 C mild salsa
Directions:
Spread the margarine over 1 side of each slice of bread. Place half of the bread slices, margarine side down, into a large skillet. Place one slice of the American cheese onto each slice of bread. Layer one slice of the Muenster cheese over the American cheese. Place the remaining bread, margarine side up, onto each sandwich. Place the skillet over medium heat. Brown the sandwiches for 4 minutes or until nicely toasted. Flip each sandwich and continue browning 3 minutes or until toasted. Remove to a platter and allow them to cool at least 5 minutes. Cut each sandwich into 4 sections. Cut each of the 4 sections in half. Serve with the salsa on the side for dipping. Makes 8 servings.
