Grilled cheese revamped

I don't even want to call this a recipe, but I just have to share my latest quick lunch. I was looking in the refrigerator for something quick to make for lunch the other day and saw some leftover spaghetti sauce and I had a memory from my teenage years. My mom used to make grilled cheese sandwiches in our sandwich maker (This is a sandwich maker... Looks like a waffle maker)
I love our sandwich maker because I love grilled cheese sandwiches, but hate getting a pan out and waiting for it to brown perfectly... because, I can never get it to brown perfectly and I always end up with one side burned... or both sides not really done and the cheese not even melted.. I can never find the happy medium. But... with the sandwich maker, it grills it perfectly for you and seals the edges nicely.

So... back to the memory I had. I saw the spaghetti sauce and remembered my older brother adding spaghetti sauce to his grilled cheese sandwich before putting it in the sandwich maker. The other day I added pepperoni and made it a pepperoni pizza sandwich. My husband likes to add some deli sliced ham and olives. You can really put in anything you want! And it makes for such a really quick lunch.

I've recently fallen in love with the Bountiful Baskets bread. It is so delicious. The only problem is... Its a little too small for the sandwich maker and my cheese always runs all over...Here's my sandwich that I had for lunch. I ended up having to eat it with a fork because the cheese was EVERYWHERE!

But it was delicious!
