Thanks so much for A GREAT, GRILLED TREAT ~ We really enjoyed this sandwich! I used Jarlsberg then used sweet pickles for mine, while my other half went for the dill variety, sad, but true! Will be making these again & again! A wonderful keeper, for sure! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Please Review My Recipe]
