Grilled Cheese With Caramelized Onion Sandwiches Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

These delicious grilled cheese sandwiches with caramelized onions are easy to make, especially if you make the caramelized onions ahead of time. Make a batch and keep in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. You can add them to everything from meatloaf to scrambled eggs. We like to add sliced garlic to the onions during the last 5 minutes of cooking time for another layer of flavor. There's nothing better or more satisfying, or simpler to make than a grilled cheese sandwich or any hot sandwich. These recipes can be changed any way you'd like. Use a different bread, a different cheese, more cheeses, or add veggies such as sliced tomatoes, sauted bell peppers, or spinach or other greens. You could also add some sauted apples or pears for a sandwich reminiscent of fall. Add some crisply cooked bacon or thinly sliced ham for a fabulous variation. If you change the recipe, write down the changes so you can reproduce your masterpiece. These easy sandwiches can be served with nothing but a cold glass of milk, but you could add a green salad or a fruit salad for a complete meal.
