1
Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter
In a small bowl, mix softened butter with minced garlic and your choice of dried herbs (like parsley, basil, or oregano).
2
Prepare the Bread
Slice the French bread in half lengthwise, then spread the garlic herb butter generously on both cut sides.
3
Assemble the Sandwich
Layer the cheddar cheese and Canadian bacon on the bottom half of the bread. If adding bacon, layer it on top of the Canadian bacon. Top with the other half of the bread.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 4-5 minutes per side.
5
Serve with Tomato Bisque
While the sandwich is grilling, heat the tomato bisque in a saucepan over medium heat. Serve the grilled cheese monster with a side of warm tomato bisque.
