If you're looking for a fantastic make-ahead snack, try these miniature grilled cheese sandwiches. They're nice to have in the freezer for lunch with soup or a salad. My family loves to nibble on them anytime.
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 2 jars (5 ounces each) sharp american cheese spread, softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles, drained
- 1/4 cup salsa
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 loaves (1-1/2 pounds each) thinly sliced sandwich bread, crusts removed
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 350°. Cream butter, cheese spread and egg until smooth. Stir in chiles, salsa and cheddar cheese. Spread about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture on each slice of 1 loaf of bread.
- Top with remaining bread; spread with more cheese mixture. Cut each sandwich into 4 squares or triangles; place on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake until cheese is melted, 10-15 minutes.
