Crazy Cooking Challenge

It's Crazy Cooking Challenge Day!
I've been anticipating this day since I signed up to be part of this.
I had no idea what I was getting into, all I knew was that I couldn't wait to see what the challenge had in store.
This month's Crazy Cooking Challenge
is
Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Here's what I'm cooking up for today
The Task:
Find a recipe online, on any blog, for any grilled cheese sandwich.
Make it.
Blog about it.
The Rules of The Game:
The recipe must be from a personal blog. No professionals allowed.
It must contain bread.
It must contain cheese.
That's it.
I found my recipe on Galley Kitchen.
As I mentioned a few posts ago, Suzanna at Galley Kitchen decided to do a tribute to the ever popular, ever cheesy, Grilled Cheese Sandwich.
I love traditional Chicken Cordon Bleu so squeezing it between two slices of toasted french bread just enhanced its appeal 100 fold for me.
Suzanna has so many great recipes on her blog. You have got to go check it out!

  • 1/8 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt
Instructions
  1. Smoosh together the roasted garlic, mayo, lemon juice, and salt.
  2. Top each slice of bread with a slice of cheese.
  3. Spread one cheese slice with roasted garlic mayo.
