Neapolitan Grilled Sandwich is a grilled cheese sandwich taken up a notch. . .or a few notches
Nothing is more comforting than a grilled cheese sandwich. For a while, my husband would have a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup for dinner every Saturday night when he came home from work.
I always liked a grilled cheese sandwich with something else; tomato, ham, turkey…or this. . . .Neapolitan Grilled Sandwich.
How can you go wrong with a melty cheese, spicy pepperoni and the ‘herby’ taste of pesto? I promise you, this is so good. It will only take you minutes to make this sandwich and sit at your table ready to eat.
Add a salad or of course tomato soup and you have the perfect, comforting meal.
Mama Fawn’s Tips. . .
- Keep an eye on your sandwich when grilling it, it can burn very quickly if you are not watching it.
- Feel free to use mozzarella if you prefer. That would be delicious also.
- Make sure you press the parmesan into the pesto or it will all come falling over when you lay it into the pan.
- I found my sandwich pepperoni at the grocery store’s deli.
- Want to make more than one sandwich? Just double or triple the ingredients.
