Welcome to The Irreverent Family Cookbook, which will include real-world favorites—from one dysfunctional family to another—such as the only dish my being-with-him-is-a-meditation-unto-itself ex-husband ever made, but damn if it wasn't the best I've ever had.
Plus, Daughter Judy—the high point of my marriage to the aforementioned thorn in my side—will only accept her dad's version of this classic. Unfortunately for her, the guy lives on the other side of the country...
THORN-IN-MY-SIDE GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH
One serving
Butter, butter, butter, slightly softened
Two slices of bread
Whatever cheese you like
Thin tomato slices, optional
Slather both sides of both pieces of bread with butter. Put two or three slices of cheese on one piece of bread. Top neatly with tomato slices, if desired. Close sandwich.
On low heat, melt more butter in a skillet. Add sandwich, watch carefully, and flip often so bread does not burn. Ultimately, cheese should be melted, and bread nicely browned.
Turn onto a plate. Cut in four pieces. (That is important for the design of the dish.) Serve immediately.
