Sometimes, especially on a cold and dreary day, there is nothing that can lift the spirits like a gooey hot grilled cheese sandwich (samich).
Swiss cheese, Muenster and cheddar all work as well.
Sealing the edges well is key to the success of this recipe
ADDITIONS
You can use SARA LEE LIGHT WHOLE WHEAT instead of the Lavash just add another 9 carbs. Who would blame you if you added a slice of ham or some bacon or tomato? If you really want to be grown up and truly Decadent, Use Brie for the cheese an add smoked salmon. You will not believe just how Decadent this is AND it only has 10g. carbs!
