Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 8 slices soft white sandwich bread, crusts removed
- 8 slices cheddar cheese or American cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread until it is thin and flexible enough to roll without cracking.
- Add cheese: Place one slice of cheddar or American cheese on each flattened bread slice.
- Roll up: Roll each piece tightly into a log shape, ensuring the cheese is fully enclosed.
- Butter the outsides: Mix the garlic powder and dried parsley into the melted butter if using, then brush the outside of each roll-up lightly with the butter mixture.
- Cook the roll-ups: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the roll-ups seam-side down in the pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and the cheese inside is melted.
- Serve: Remove from the skillet, let cool slightly, then slice in half or serve whole with your choice of dipping sauce.
Notes
- Serve with tomato soup or marinara sauce for a delicious dipping option.
- Use soft, fresh sandwich bread for easy rolling and to avoid cracking.
- For a variation, add thin slices of ham or turkey inside before rolling.
