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.
1. Grilled Ham and Gruyere Sandwiches

This sandwich has one of the best sandwich spreads as its base: a combination of mayonnaise and grated Parmesan cheese. Then it's topped with smoky and suave Gruyere cheese, thinly sliced ham, roasted red peppers, and basil leaves. Wow.
2. Grilled Creamy Roast Beef Sandwiches

The filling for this easy sandwich can be used as a last-minute appetizer too. Keep a batch of it on hand to feed hungry kids, or just for a quick grilled or cold sandwich.
3. Grilled Flank Steak Sandwiches

Flank steak is delicious when marinated and cook on the grill. These sandwiches are cooked entirely on the grill, so they have a wonderful smoky flavor.
4. Grilled Chicken and Apple Sandwich

I love the combination of tender chicken, sweet and tart apples, and melted cheese in this easy and delicious grilled sandwich.
