Directions
- Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.

- Place a slice of cheese (and any additional ingredients like apple, avocado, etc.) on the unbuttered side of the bread, then top with another slice, buttered side out.
- Grill the sandwiches until golden brown, about two to three minutes per side, pressing them down with a spatula for even browning.
- Once the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted to a golden brown, remove from heat.
- Let them rest for a minute before slicing into smaller, bite-sized pieces if desired.
- Serve immediately, with dipping sauces or garnishes tailored to each mini grilled cheese variety. Enjoy!
