[Recipe] Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Any simple meal in our household makes for a happy [mommy and] family.  

That is why I was super excited when I saw Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, I almost jumped for joy!  What a great twist on your typical grilled cheese or pepperoni pizza!  

I found some great recipes from Sweet Anna's Blog and Deep South Dish.  I decided to take a spin at this sandwich for my family.




[Recipe] Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Serving size: 1 sandwich
Difficulty:
  • Easy
Time: 
  • 15 to 30 minutes

Ingredients:
  • Mozzarella Cheese Slices (enough to cover bread twice)
  • 2 slices of bread (we used Whole Wheat bread)
  • Pepperoni (at least one layer, approx. 12 regular pieces)
  • Butter or margarine (we used melted butter with a brush)
Instructions:
  • Butter the 2 pieces of bread on one side.
  • Cut the mozzarella if needed.
  • Place one piece of bread, butter side down on a frying pan on top of the stove.
  • Add one layer of cheese.


  • Add one layer of pepperoni.


  • Add one more layer of cheese.


  • Place the other piece of bread down, butter side up.
  • Turn on the stove to medium-low
    • **Tip** Use a domed lid to cover to help melt the cheese evenly.
  • Flip the sandwich after a few minutes or golden brown with melted cheese.  
  • Cook both sides.
  • Take off, let cook, cut and ENJOY!




Some recipes call for marinara as a dipping sauce, but for our meal, we used tomato soup.  It was delicious.  It was a nice spin on grilled cheese.  Next time we will try marinara sauce!  Enjoy everyone!
