PIZZA GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the butter, Parmesan, Italian seasoning and crushed red pepper. Brush one side of each slice of bread with this mixture.
• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lay one piece of the bread, butter-side down, in the skillet. Spread 1 tablespoon marinara sauce on the bread and layer on the mozzarella, provolone, pepperoni, pepper slices, olives and basil leaves. Top with the second slice of bread, butter-side up. Toast in the skillet, flipping as needed, until the bread is golden and the cheese has melted, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Remove from the skillet and slice in half. Serve with the remaining 1/4 cup marinara on the side.

PIZZA GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, using a rubber spatula, mix together the ricotta, mozzarella, 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, the diced pepperoni and the basil until well combined.
• Butter one side of each slice of bread. Working buttered side down, spread each slice with 1 tablespoon of the marinara. Divide the cheese mixture among 6 slices of the bread, and sandwich with the remaining slices. For each sandwich, sprinkle the top piece of bread with 1 tablespoon of the remaining Parmesan. Flip, and sprinkle the other side with an additional tablespoon of Parmesan.
• To make all of these sandwiches at once, heat 2 baking pans in the oven for 10 minutes. Spray the bottom of one of the pans with cooking spray, and place the buttered and Parmesan-ed sandwiches in the pan. Spray the underside of the second pan, and place it on top of the sandwiches. Bake until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted, 10 minutes.
• Cut each sandwich into 3 pieces. Using a few shreds of mozzarella cheese as glue, make a face using the black olive slices as eyes, the green olive slices as a nose, and the pepperoni slices as a mouth. Melt for 4 minutes in the oven to adhere.
• Serve with marinara for dipping if desired.

SHEET PAN GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the bottom of the oven, place a large rimmed baking sheet on the rack and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Spread one side of 6 slices of bread with 4 tablespoons of the butter and place, buttered sides down, on a second large rimmed baking sheet.
• Top each buttered bread slice with 1 slice of cheese or some of Kardea's Pimento Cheese and your desired toppings. Top with another slice of cheese and the remaining 6 bread slices. Spread the tops of the bread slices with the remaining 4 tablespoons of the butter.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven, and place it on top of the uncooked sandwiches, rimmed edges up. Press down on the sandwiches.
• Place the stacked baking sheets in the oven on the bottom rack. Bake until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve immediately.
• Add the yellow Cheddar, cream cheese, white Cheddar, pimentos and mayonnaise to a bowl and mix together. Add the chives, garlic powder, cayenne, smoked paprika, salt and pepper and mix until thoroughly combined.
