Every grilled cheese must have jalapeños moving forward! Used mayo instead of butter, and an olive loaf instead of white bread. Delish paired with the creamy tomato soup.

We really liked these grilled cheese with extra old cheddar inside & the outer Parmesan crust BUT I could not keep the jalapeño rings in place (and I did press them into the buttery bread well -at least I thought I did). I kept trying to spread them back out over the cooked side....... not pretty but yes - ultimately pretty delicious.

Do use a non stick skillet. I tried making it on my oven grill and the cheese stuck to it. Parts of it was delicious

The crisp Parmesan crust that formed ensured that these sandwiches were like no other grilled cheese I had ever made. They were enjoyed with and without the jalapenos and I was happy the method worked using mayonnaise instead of butter.

My jalapeno was super spicy but this was still very good. Son sliced the jalapeno really thin for me. He can stand more heat than I can and he really loved these. Hubby said make him a plain grilled cheese please. He used to love spicy food but some of his meds won't let him tolerate it much anymore. I made tomato soup to go with the sandwiches. I did use sourdough bread.
