Lazy Leftover Lunches- Taco Cheese Sandwiches


Here's a great idea for lunch for the kids (and for yourself). This is a great twist to the plain old grilled cheese sandwich. Plus you get to use up the taco meat from last night's dinner, and if you're bread's going a little stale but not bad yet, this will use up those leftovers and food that might have just ended up in the trash. This is so easy and yummy, you're going to say "Why didn't I think of that?".

TACO CHEESE SANDWICH

Ingredients:

2 slices of bread
butter
1 slice of cheese or 1/4 cup shredded or thinly sliced cheese of your choice
leftover taco meat



Directions:

Preheat griddle on low-medium, depending on your stove.
Spread butter thinly on one side of two pieces of bread.
Place bread butter side down on griddle.
Spread meat over one slice of bread.
Place cheese on top of meat.
Flip the other slice of bread on top of cheese.
Grill on both sides to desired doneness.
You can add onions, tomatoes, and peppers or any other things you enjoy in your taco, although if you want to add lettuce, you may want to wait until it is finished and on your plate.


Serve with chips and salsa or another favorite side.
And...of course...Enjoy! :)
