Cook’s Note:

• For a crispier crust, you can brush the outside of the bread with a small amount of melted butter or olive oil before grilling.
• Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyère or cheddar, to create your own unique grilled cheese variations.
• Pair the grilled Swiss cheese sandwiches with a side salad, tomato soup, or your favorite accompaniment for a complete meal.
• Leftover grilled Swiss cheese sandwiches can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven before serving.
