Mac & Cheese Grilled Cheese with Tomato Soup

Instructions

Toast the waffles in the oven or toaster oven until slightly browned and crisp.

Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted.

Place one waffle in the pan. Top with cheddar cheese, mac & cheese, and mozzarella cheese.

Add the second waffle on top to form a sandwich. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for a few minutes until the cheese begins to melt.

Flip the sandwich and cook until both sides are golden brown and all the cheese is melted.

Serve immediately with tomato soup on the side for dipping.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Waffle Texture Magic 🧇
Slightly toast your cheesy waffles before assembling to create a firmer base that prevents sogginess and enhances structural integrity.
Cheese Melting Technique 🧀
Grate your mozzarella and cheddar separately and mix them for optimal meltability, creating a more uniform and creamy cheese layer.
Butter Browning Trick 🧈
Use clarified butter or ghee for grilling to achieve a higher golden-brown color and prevent burning while maintaining rich flavor.
Mac & Cheese Stability 🥘
Chill your prepared mac & cheese for 30 minutes before assembling to help it hold its shape and prevent excessive spreading during grilling.
Soup Dipping Perfection 🥣
Warm your tomato soup to just above room temperature to create the ideal dipping consistency that complements the hot grilled sandwich.
