The 'Food52' blog recently put together a recipe for a giant grilled cheese sandwich that is perfect for any party. With Super Bowl Sunday only days away, this recipe provides a simple and easy solution for serving many hungry football fans at once.
The recipe is simple to make and only differs slightly from a traditional grilled cheese sandwich. To make the slab grilled cheese, you will need one large piece of focaccia bread and about a pound a half of cheddar cheese. The cheese is then layered between the bread and baked in the oven. The olive oil in the bread gives the sandwich a delightful crunch that is usually achieved with butter. Once baked, the giant grilled cheese will provide a shareable appetizer for hungry guests.
