GRILLED MAC N CHEESE SANDWICH WITH BACON



Grilled Mac n Cheese Sandwich with Bacon image

Bacon and mac & cheese rolled into one sandwich... pure decadence and deliciousness. The outside is buttery and a little crisp from the cheese. Inside, creamy mac & cheese and a smoky flavor from the bacon. Although great alone, this would be yummy with a little bowl of tomato soup too. Total comfort food!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 box macaroni and cheese, prepared; leftovers are perfect.
sliced bread
4 slice bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
shredded cheddar cheese
butter to spread

Steps:

  • 1. Make mac and cheese with milk and butter according to directions on the box. If using cold leftovers, heat a tad in microwave, then combine with the crumbled cooked bacon.
  • 2. Heat a non-stick griddle or sauté pan on med-high heat.
  • 3. Butter one side of one bread slice. Sprinkle shredded cheese onto the buttered side of the bread with the intention that most of the cheese will stick to the butter.
  • 4. Lay the slice, cheese side down on the hot pan. Some cheese may fall away. It might be a tad messy. That's ok.
  • 5. Load a pile of the mac & cheese mixture onto the top of the bread slice in the pan. Spread out evenly on the bread.
  • 6. Top with a second slice of bread. Press down a little with a spatula on the top bread. Spread butter on the top of the top slice of bread, and sprinkle more shredded cheese on it, like you did the first slice.
  • 7. Toast on med heat the first side of the sandwich until golden. Don't burn the cheese. Flip over the sandwich with a spatula onto the second side. Again some of your cheese on the second side may fall a bit or be messy. This is ok. Brown the second side. Ready to serve.

Mac & Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-11135

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 slices thick-cut bacon, diced, cooked, and fat drained
1 cup elbow macaroni, cooked
1 -1/2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
3/4 cup milk
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/8 tsp dry ground mustard
1 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
8 slices white bread
1/4 cup mayonnaise
8 slices sharp cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepan. Add the flour and cook, while stirring, for 30 seconds. 2. Add the milk and bring to a simmer, while stirring constantly. When the sauce begins to simmer, remove the pan from the heat and add the shredded cheese, mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir until all of the cheese has melted. Add the bacon and the cooked elbow macaroni to the cheese sauce, and stir to fully coat the macaroni. Set aside. 3. To prepare the sandwiches, preheat the oven to 350°F. 4, Place 8 slices of bread on a work surface and spread the mayonnaise onto one side of each slice. Flip over 4 slices of the bread and place 1 slice of cheddar on each. 5. Divide the macaroni over the cheese-covered bread slices and spread evenly. Top the macaroni and cheese with the remaining slices of cheddar, and cover with the remaining bread slices, mayonnaise side facing out. 6. Preheat a square griddle pan to medium heat. Place the sandwiches on the hot griddle and toast until golden brown on one side, about 5-8 minutes. Flip the sandwiches, then place the griddle, with the sandwiches, in the oven and bake for about 5-8 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese slices have melted.
