I am obsessed with Chicken Cordon Bleu. I also love grilled cheese so this is my dream dish. This is such an easy and tasty sandwich recipe!

I start by placing olive oil and minced garlic in a medium-large sized skillet over low-medium heat. When oil shimmers, I place the buttered bread in and start my grilled cheeses!

Layers upon layers of goodness and gooey cheese!

Toasty, warm and DELICIOUS! What more can you ask for!?
