Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwiches . . . two favorite classics combined into one spectacular sandwich! Makes a perfect easy dinner or lunch!

When we really need dinner in a rush, sandwiches are a great fall back.  I usually serve them with a green salad, or fruit salad and some cut up veggies with dip.

You’ve probably figured it out by now, but I am a pretty big fan of cheese. I love most types, but we tend to stick to the basics at my house. We buy cheddar cheese in three pound blocks, and all my kids except for my oldest have inherited my love of cheese. It’s a staple at our house!

Grilled cheese sandwiches are always a hit, but these garlic bread grilled cheese sandwiches are absolutely epic! My daughter loved them so much that she requested them for lunch two days in a row. They are seriously delicious.

How to Make Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Ingredients needed:

  • butter (make sure it’s softened to room temperature)
  • garlic powder
  • salt
  • dried parsley flakes
  • parmesan cheese
  • bread (we like French bread or sourdough bread)
  • cheese (my family likes cheddar, but you can use any cheese you like)

It is so simple to make these updated grilled cheese sandwiches. Just stir together butter, garlic powder, salt, dried parsley, and parmesan cheese. Then spread it on the bread and cook like you would a regular grilled cheese sandwich.

The extra pop of flavor you get by using garlic bread makes these sandwiches absolutely delicious. After trying garlic bread grilled cheese, I don’t know if I can ever make regular grilled cheese again. I hope you’ll give them a try!

GARLIC BREAD GRILLED CHEESE

Yield: 8-10 sandwiches

Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Grilled cheese sandwiches made with garlic bread.

Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 8 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup soft butter
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley flakes
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • a generous pinch of salt
  • 16-18 slices of French bread
  • Cheddar cheese, sliced (or your favorite cheese)

Instructions

  1. Stir together butter, garlic powder, parsley flakes, Parmesan cheese, and salt in a small bowl.
  2. Spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
  3. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and place half the bread, buttered side down, into the skillet. Top with cheese and remaining slices of bread. Cook, flipping halfway through, until bread is golden brown, parmesan cheese is crispy, and inside cheese is melted.

Notes

Tip: I like to cover my skillet with a lid so the inside cheese melts faster.
