1
Butter the Bread
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of thick white bread.
2
Assemble the Sandwich
Place one slice of bread butter-side down in a skillet. Layer 2 slices of cheddar cheese on top, then cover with the second slice of bread, butter-side up.
3
Grill the Sandwich
Heat the skillet over medium heat. Grill the sandwich for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich and grill for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is also golden brown.

4
Prepare the Fries
While the sandwich is grilling, preheat the oven or fryer according to the package instructions for the frozen French fries.
5
Cook the Fries
Cook the fries in the oven or fryer until crispy and golden brown, usually about 15-20 minutes, depending on the method.

6
Plate the Grilled Cheese
Once the grilled cheese sandwich is ready, remove it from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut it in half diagonally.
7
Serve with Sides
Serve the grilled cheese sandwich with a side of crispy fries or a cup of applesauce. Enjoy!
