Grilled sandwiches are one of the best quick meals around, and can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. These recipes are some of my favorites, including the way I make the simplest and best grilled cheese sandwiches in the world.
The best way and easiest to make grilled cheese sandwiches that are crisp on the outside and warm and melty on the inside is to assemble the sandwich, then butter just the outsides of the bread. Place on a hot griddle set to low heat, and cover. Grill until the first side is browned, then flip with a spatula and cover, grill until the second side is crisp. Slice and serve immediately.

This sandwich has an unusual coating. Mayonnaise is spread on the outside of the sandwiches instead of butter. This creates a tangy, slightly crisp crust that complements the grilled chicken, pineapple, and Swiss cheese to perfection.
This unusual way of cooking bacon turns it into a gourmet treat. I'd add some Swiss cheese and baby spinach leaves to this sandwich before it's grilled.
