- Cook: Cook sandwiches in a skillet over medium-low heat until golden brown and cheese is melted, about 2 minutes per side. Slice and serve.

- I recommend eating the sandwiches fresh for the best taste, but they can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- To store, place in an airtight container.
- To reheat, warm in a skillet or air fryer until heated through.
