Ok, so…

Have you ever used mayo in the place of butter to make a grilled cheese?

I just did!

It makes a very golden, luxurious crust on the outside of your bread.

Since it’s summertime and I have a plethora of fresh basil, I made this off the charts delicious Caprese Ham Grilled Cheese. Hillshire Farm ®  Thin Sliced Honey Ham, Mozzarella, tomatoes and fresh basil on soft Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse ™ Oatmeal bread. Their bread tastes so fresh and is different than most store bought sliced bread. If you’ve never tried it, go here to find a local store so you can pick some up.

It’s now my new obsession.

I bought the main key players for this sammy at Walmart, and made them for a small get together at work. None were leftover.

The next time you make a grilled sandwich, spread some Hellmann’s® Real mayonnaise on the bread instead of butter. Just try it – trust me!

This sandwich just represents summer. That basil – seriously.

And I don’t know about you, but I dig when Mozzarella cheese does that brown crispy thing. I go for that first before even biting into the sandwich.

    The mayo trick is a good one. Been using it for years. (Not only does it produce a beautiful gold/brown, it’s a lot easier to spread than butter.) — The sandwich looks beautiful, but I hate your guts for using the word ‘sammy.’

      Thanks, Adam. But you know you don’t hate my guts 😉
