Date Grilled Cheese Sandwich

I had a really delicious date grilled cheese sandwich at an Egyptian breakfast place over in Toronto and I fell instantly in love with the combination of two of my favorite foods melted into one gooey sandwich.

This isn’t an exact copy of the sandwich, but it’s my take on it. This really tastes so unexpectedly good and is like having dessert for breakfast. You can switch out the types of cheeses for whatever you have at home.
