1. Experiment with Different Cheeses

  • Mix and match cheeses for a more complex flavor. Try combining sharp cheddar with creamy mozzarella, smoky gouda, or tangy goat cheese.
  • Add a sprinkle of parmesan to the outside of the bread for an extra crispy, cheesy crust.

2. Add Flavorful Spreads

  • Spread a thin layer of pesto, garlic aioli, or Dijon mustard on the inside of the bread before adding the cheese.
  • For a sweet and savory twist, try a drizzle of honey or fig jam.

3. Incorporate Fresh Herbs

  • Add fresh basil, thyme, or cilantro to your sandwich for a burst of freshness.
  • Sprinkle dried herbs like oregano or rosemary into the mayonnaise for an herby crust.

4. Add Protein

  • Layer in crispy bacon, sliced ham, or turkey for a heartier sandwich.
  • For a vegetarian option, try adding marinated tofu or tempeh.

5. Include Veggies

  • Sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, or roasted red peppers add depth and sweetness.
  • Thinly sliced tomatoes or avocado can add creaminess and freshness.
