Description

A fun twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich, featuring sweet Hawaiian rolls and melted cheese. Perfect for a quick lunch or a party appetizer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Optional: Sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon

Instructions

  1. Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half without cutting all the way through.
  2. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and butter the insides of each roll.
  3. Place the bottom halves of the rolls on the skillet and fill generously with cheese. Press down slightly with the top halves.
  4. Grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side, flipping carefully.
  5. Once both sides are crispy and cheese is melted, remove from heat, slice, and serve hot.

Notes

Use good quality cheese for extra gooeyness. Don’t rush cooking time; grilling slowly helps to melt the cheese evenly. You can also experiment with different cheeses like cheddar or pepper jack.
