Swap Bread For This Frozen Breakfast Staple And Change Your Grilled Cheese Forever - Tasting Table

"Grilled cheese sandwiches can range from basic to decadent and everything in between with nearly infinite combinations of bread and cheese (and sometimes more). Of the many hacks for grilled cheese you'll wish you knew sooner, changing up the bread is a simple way to give your food even more flair and flavor. For a quick and simple grilled cheese upgrade, try using frozen Eggo waffles in place of typical sliced bread."

"The reliable taste of an Eggo homestyle waffle is what makes it one of the best frozen waffle brands available. Once you've taken care to properly warm up a pair of waffles, loading them into a pan with your choice of cheese will create the ultimate fluffy, gooey, and irresistible grilled cheese sandwich. The slightly sweet taste and unique texture provide ample surface area for the melted cheese to situate, giving you a truly robust version of your favorite recipe."

"There is also a lot of room to experiment with different flavor combinations based on your specific choice of Eggo frozen breakfast items. You can play with contrasting sweet and savory flavors or make a dessert-style grilled cheese. Depending on your taste preferences, you can also get creative with additional ingredients, sauces, seasonings, and more. Either butter or mayonnaise is an optimal choice for a typical grilled cheese sandwich, but you'll want to adjust to accommodate the taste and texture of your frozen waffles."

Frozen Eggo waffles can replace sliced bread to produce a fluffy, gooey grilled cheese with a slightly sweet flavor and distinctive texture. Warm the waffles in a microwave or toaster to achieve pliability, then coat the exterior with a frying fat such as butter, mayonnaise, ghee, olive oil, or tallow for searing. Layer sliced cheese between the warmed waffles and pan-fry until the cheese melts and the exterior is golden. The waffle surface provides ample area for melted cheese to situate, enhancing bite and creating a robust version of a classic sandwich. Sweet and savory pairings or dessert-style fillings work well, and additional ingredients, sauces, and seasonings can personalize the sandwich.
