Italian Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

1 loaf French bread, sliced (I would buy two loaves, if you are serving more than four people.)

Provolone cheese, sliced

Mozzarella cheese, sliced

Parmesan cheese

Butter

Garlic salt

Italian seasoning

Tomatoes, sliced (optional)

Marinara sauce

Take 2 slices of the French bread and spread butter on one side of each of them. Sprinkle garlic salt and Italian seasoning on the buttered sides of the bread. Put some provolone, mozzarella, and parmesan cheese on the non-buttered side of one slice. If using tomato, place on top of the cheese and then sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Place remaining slice of bread on top, butter-side up. Spray a frying pan with cooking spray and cook the sandwich on medium-low heat until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted. Serve with heated marinara sauce for dipping.


This was a huge hit!! My brother and his family showed up while we were in the middle of making these and they loved them as well. We just cooked some without Tomatoes for those who didn't want it. Fun twist on an old classic, and makes us parents feel like we are eating something more exciting than a plain grilled cheese.
