Fontina Grilled Cheese
Fontina Grilled Cheese
Panera Bread used to serve a popular grilled cheese sandwich that used four cheeses, including a creamy, sharp fontina. The chain discontinued the menu item, but you can make one using similar ingredients at home for a copycat version.

Ingredients
- 2 slices ½ inch thick white bread
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 slice monterey jack
- 2 slices fontina cheese
- 1 slice sharp white cheddar
Directions
- Sandwich the slices of cheese between 2 slices of bread.
- Preheat a skillet, and melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-low heat.
- Spread or brush the outside of the sandwich with 1 tablespoon mayo and cook until light golden brown, about 4-6 minutes.
- Flip the sandwich, (add more butter to the pan if needed) and cook the other side until brown and the cheese is melted, another 4-6 minutes.
- You can press down on the sandwich gently so it will brown evenly, but don’t smash it.
