Crispy Bacon Meets a Trio of Melty Cheeses on Buttery Brioche

by

Ingredients

  • 4 slices brioche bread
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese (or feta if preferred)
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Bacon – In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel–lined plate to drain.
  2. Prepare the Bread – Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each brioche slice. If desired, spread mayonnaise on the inside.
  3. Assemble – On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer cheddar, mozzarella, blue cheese, and crispy bacon. Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing out.
  4. Grill the Sandwiches – Heat a skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Cook sandwiches for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until bread is golden brown and cheeses are melted.
  5. Serve – Slice in half, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.

If you want, I can also give you a gourmet-style twist for this recipe with caramelized onions or a drizzle of honey for a sweet-salty combo. Would you like me to make that version?
