A perennial favorite: soft melted cheese and pressed, buttery toast.Ingredients:
2 slices Cheddar, American, or Swiss cheese
2 slices white bread
2 tablespoons butter
Preperation:
Put the cheese between the slices of bread. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet or grill and when melted add the sandwich. Gently press down with a spatula once or twice during the grilling. When one side is golden, add the remaining tablespoon of butter, turn the sandwich over, and brown.
Variations:
Grilled Cheese with Bacon. Fry 3 slices bacon until cooked but not crisp. Pat dry of excess fat, add on top of the cheese, and grill as directed.
Grilled Cheese with Ham. Put 2 thin slices ham on the cheese and grill as directed. Serve with sweet pickle.
Onion-Cheese Sandwich. Follow the recipe for Grilled Cheese Sandwich, but lightly coat 1 slice of bread with Dijon mustard. Sauté 3 to 4 slices onion in butter and put on top of the cheese. Cover and grill.
Tomato-Cheese Sandwich. Follow the recipe for Grilled Cheese Sandwich, but add two thin slices tomato to the sandwich before grilling.

Grilled cheese and comic books! Ahhh the mammaries.
PS did you cut down your scribble time to 30 min? Still looks great!
You may want to check out the Italian version. Toast a lil Italian bread, ciabatta, or focaccia with a slice of mozzarella, tomato & if possible fresh basil.
Nice pics as usual.
How about a recipe for destruction there, Eric?
If you want the recipe for destruction, simply use fat-free cheese.
