Swiss Mushroom Melt Delight

Variations:

  • Spicy Kick: Add sliced jalapeños or mix sriracha into the mayo.
  • Caramelized Onion Twist: Replace or add caramelized onions for a richer, slightly sweet flavor.
  • Cheese Upgrade: Swap Swiss for Gruyère, provolone, or smoked Gouda.
  • Lighter Option: Use lean ground turkey, chicken, or a plant-based patty.
  • Garlic Butter Touch: Brush the bread with garlic butter before grilling for extra depth of flavor.

Tips for the Perfect Swiss Mushroom Melt:

  • Use a cast-iron skillet for the best crust and even cooking.
  • Let mushrooms cook undisturbed for a few minutes to get a nice sear before stirring.
  • Press the sandwich lightly with a spatula while grilling for even browning.
  • Reduce heat if needed to allow the cheese to melt without burning the bread.
  • For extra crispiness, lightly toast the bread before assembling the sandwich.
