Classic American Grilled Cheese Sandwich
As many of my readers know, I am obsessed with grilled cheese sandwiches! They are so easy to cook and yet so irresistibly good. I have been eating grilled cheese since I was a child. With time, everything has changed, the bread changed, other ingredients changed, sides changed, but the one thing that remained constant was the American cheese.
The hi-melt cheese melts perfectly in between the bread giving the sandwiches the perfect texture. A grilled cheese sandwich is a delicious classic that is ready in no time at alland goes well with delicious tomato soup or grilled vegetables on the side.

Mac & cheese and meatballs on their own, are too mainstream. I love experimenting with food, and Mac &Cheese stuffed meatballs are one of my experimental dishes that turned out amazing!
First, cook mac and cheese using hi-melt cheese slices, this will allow the macaroni to stick together so that it is easy to stuff inside the meatball. Cooldown the mac and cheese and stuff it in the meatballs. And there you go, you have the most unique meatballs on your plate.
