I didn’t have pasta sauce or mozzarella cheese. But I ended up making THE best grilled cheese I ever had. I shredded Cabot extra sharp white cheddar cheese on one piece of bread and cheddar cheese on the other grilled on a little coconut oil and unsalted butter. OMG

pretty good, I should have used better bread instead of regular bread, and I didn't use the best cheeses. it was due to convenience

A fantastic change for a Grilled Cheese. It's so simple to make but it is delicious! I used sliced French Bread to make the sandwich. Don't be afraid to dip your sandwich in the Marinara Sauce. It's the secret that makes this sandwich so good. Try it...you'll love it!

A good idea to twist this classic for something a little different. These were easy to make and tasty, though we used a little too much cheese so I’ll try less next time

Delicious! I'm in love with this idea. I have always just made regular grilled cheese sandwiches with American cheese but the idea of putting marinara in the sandwich adds so much to it.
