How to Make Awesome Grilled Cheese Sandwich

  1. Melt 1 tablespoon of margarine in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown (about 5 minutes).
  2. Spread 1 tablespoon of margarine on one side of each slice of rye bread.
  3. Place one slice of rye bread, margarine-side down, in the frying pan.
  4. Top with 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) and the cooked onions.
  5. Top with the remaining slice of rye bread, margarine-side up.
  6. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey. Press down gently with a spatula to ensure even cooking and melting.
