Lunch on Friday afternoon in Ohio. Granddaughters Anna and Maura each made a grilled cheese sandwich, plated them with a garnish of fruit and served the sandwiches to me.
I was to eat half of each and cast my vote for the winner. Yikes. Anna’s wasn’t quite as grilled as Maura’s but she used garlic butter and that was unexpected and delicious. Maura’s was thicker with cheese and toasted nicely. Mmmmmm. I ate a half of each but I declared it a tie. They said my verdict wasn’t allowed. It was not quite Iron Chef but it was fun. They kept jockeying the plates so I’d sample their efforts first. Anna selected her dad’s favorite mug to serve the oj. Nice touch. I loved them both and it was a great lunch.
Delicious looking grilled cheese! I’d declare a tie, too!!! 🙂
It is so important to get children involved in the preparation of food. And as your post shows, it can be lots of fun.
You are so right Peter. Very important. And fun is good!
I enjoy the crunch of the grilled bread and the aroma remaining in the kitchen. Iron Chefs II great idea.
Grilled cheese is my favorite comfort food. They both sound good!
They both sound delicious!
Your diplomacy was absolutely shining on this one. We love grilled cheese so both look fantastic to us. I like it with Tomato soup. I will share a family secret. After the sandwich is grilled peel back once slice of bread and spread a little jelly on it then close. Maybe it is an acquired taste but it is a real winner in our book.
Maura’s got some skills! That even toasting is excellent. Nice work!
Yes she got that even toasting down.
Sounds like there may be a chef or two in the coming years.
Your food pictures are soooooo mouth watering!!!😋😋
Thank you
