   🍽️ Serving Ideas
   Slice in half for that melty cheese pull
   Serve with fries, chips, or a simple salad
   Add a little hot sauce for extra flavor
   💡 Tips for Best Results
   Use low heat so the cheese melts before the bread burns
   Cover the pan for 1 minute to help melt the cheese faster
   Use thicker bread for a heartier sandwich
