30 Second Sandwich

“this is just how my gran gives us our cheese sandwichs, though she adds a slice of ham and a bit of chutney, very good.”

“ummm…is this even a recipe?”

“this is the greatest thing that has ever happened to my dorm room”

“This is delish. Good job :)”

“I have been making this for about 25 years and still have it today for an easy breakfast at work”

“I ate this all through law school!(I had no idea other people would like it too.)Easy and cheap to make.”

“Just a word to those who say this isn’t a “recipe”: According to my dictionary, the definition of a recipe is, “A set of directions for making or preparing something, esp food.””

“An extra few seconds could make this better in several ways. Calling this a recipe is quite a stretch. Search for “grilled cheese” and do yourself a favor, the extra time, and pat of butter, are well worth it.”

“This “non recipe” got me through all of my teenage summer days; only I ate it for breakfast while watching TV (oh- those lazy days!).So yummy and works well on any type of bread- sliced sandwich, bagel and english muffins for instance.Mmmm!”

“I make this exact sandwich, with one exception, to go with a large glass of ice cold milk.The only thing I do different is I do not microwave.It’s just perfect before or during a busy day!”

“I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but…this isn’t a recipe.This is however, one of the laziest excuses for a grilled cheese sandwich I’ve ever seen.I will conclude by saying this, if “after a night on the tiles� as you put it, this is the best you could do, then you might consider rehab! Ha-ha!”

“I have made this sandwich many a times..especially when I was younger and my cooking skills were not the same as they are now:) I used to do it when I didnt feel like making a grilled cheese..”

“I’ve been eating cheese sandwiches for years.I normally add a thin layer of mayo.Great on the go sandwich!”

“This was college staple food for me! I made them even less like a grilled cheese. I used to put it in an open baggie first before putting it in the microwave so that the bread would get really soft and the cheese would melt better. I then microwaved it for only about 20 seconds. The bag and the shorter time seemed to help keep the bread from getting hard. Ham added to the sandwich is nice as well.”

“I used to have this daily when I was young. I still enjoy this, with light old cheddar cheese on occasion today.It’s a great way to change up a plain cold cheese sandwich.Best of all it is extremely quick and tasty! :)”

“Make it a 90 Second Sandwich by toasting the bread first – and you’ve got a winner.PLUS, use more than one miserly slice of cheese!I’ve made “grilled” cheese sandwiches this way for years and like the lack of added fat.”

“I tried this (with toasted bread) when I got my first microwave years ago.The cookbook that came with it included this recipe.I thought: how bad could it be?Unfortunately, theanswer is: really bad.It is SO worth the minimal effort involved to grill the sandwich, even if that does add some grams of fat, at least the results are edible.”

“We used to do this for kids at the daycare I worked at. It didn’t taste as good as the original, but it is lower in fat and the kids loved them!”

“My apologies, Happy Harry, but the m’wave makes the bread real soggy and chewy, as if it had been dipped in fondue. Sorry for the 3 stars.”

“microwaving makes the bread gross and it doesn’t really make it any quicker than using a skillet.”
