Oatmeal can be a savory. I've put salt and garlic in a bowl of oats before.

yes indeed, particularly cinnamon or brown sugar oatmeal adds an extra kick of flavor, shoot I even use barbecue and cheese for stuff like hot dogs when I run out of bread😎😌

Sure! You've heard of cheese grits... I hope. Oatmeal can be cheesy too.

I mean... yeah it's traditional to make it sweet. Cinnamon apple, blueberry, maple syrup flavor, whatever. But it's a flavor blank slate, just like a lot of other things. You can write whatever flavor you want on it.

Savory oatmeal can be delicious. Tuscan olive oats, blue cheese oats, italian seasoned oats...

I like my grilled cheese topped with pepper jack cheese, grilled open faced, covered with a slice of tomato on one side and a slice of onion on the other side, then folded together into a sandwich. Just about any thick soup will do.

Leave the tuna for the cats.

hey, friends, i'm soliciting your thoughts on this sandwich. do you like it, and how do you like it?

what kind of bread, and what kind of cheese? do you add other things, like a tomato slice, or ham, or bacon? hot peppers or other veggies?

when i was a kid, mom always gave us grilled cheese and tomato soup. we dropped popcorn in the soup, just a few kernels at a time so it didn't get soggy.

in my husband's family they ate tomato soup with a tuna salad sandwich. apparently, they're barbarians. :D

please share your experiences.
I have had tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches many times. Same for tuna fish sandwiches too. Good comfort food for sure.

Some people down here in the South put diced tomatoes in their tuna sandwich. Does that count as barbarism? Does it have to cross a certain tomato percentage before they can be considered barbarians? Or does the tomato have to be liquid soup? Can it be solid tomatoes and still not be barbaric?
it was a joke, Lynx. :)

however, you may imagine my dismay when, yesterday evening as i was talking to my husband about it, he reminded me it was his school that served tuna sandwiches with tomato soup. this makes sense!
i apologized for calling his family barbarians, and he said, oh, my parents never gave us tomato soup with a grilled cheese, either. we had it coming. :ROFL:

For a grilled cheese sandwich, thickly sliced sour dough bread is best, and I would never use pre-sliced cheddar or
whatever that orange sliced cheese is. Real cheddar or Havarti alone, or a mixture of cheddar and Havarti, or gouda,
enough that it oozes from the sides of the well-grilled bread. The only other thing added would be ketchup.
Yes, my dear mother served grilled cheese sandwiches with tomato soup. Never tuna and tomato soup
.:D
My mother's tuna specialty was a stove-top concoction made with rice and peas. Or maybe a casserole...
i've never had much success with cheddar. higher melt point, maybe? :unsure:
oh, i should try grating it! thanks for encouraging me to think lol

To make this breakfasty I have tried adding an egg patty- but it sort of messed with the yumminess of this, so I changed it up a little.

For breakfast grilled sandwiches I will do the same thing with buttering both sides, grilling one side.
Place choice(s) of cheese on each grilled side.
I make a scrambled egg patty (by cracking 1-2 eggs in a bowl and whisking together with a little milk and seasonings).
Pour into hot pan and cook, forming/folding into a patty. Set aside.
Grill both sides of ham slice.
Layer egg and ham on one slice of the cheese bread.
Top with second slice (buttered side up).
Grill sandwich until desired doneness.
when i was in Paris, i had a sandwich called a croque monsieur. first time for me, but here in the States it's called a Monte Cristo, iirc.

zhuzh an egg and a little milk in a bowl, dip one side of the bread in it as if you're making French Toast, you see?
lay it in a lightly buttered pan.
top with cheese and whatever else you like. when the cheese is melty, smash the two pieces together.
eat it for energy while you climb that big hill to Montmartre, so you can visit Sacré Coeur. you need the energy. :D

you can get the croque monsieur with Bechamel on top, if you like that kinda thing. :)
