Lasagna Grilled Cheese: This sandwich is pure, unadulterated comfort food! All the lasagna ingredients sandwiched between two slices of grilled bread = Heaven!

Lasagna Grilled Cheese | A Latte FoodHappy Friday, everyone!

How about kicking off the weekend with some amazing comfort food? Since it’s fall (finally!) and technically less than 3 months ’til Christmas (eeeek!), comfort food is a total must!

Which is great, because I really, really love comfort food. So much, in fact, if I was on a desert island and could only pick one comfort food to bring with me, I honestly don’t know how I’d choose.

Pot pie? S’mores? Shepherd’s Pie? Pizza? Mac and Cheese? Cheesecake? Chocolate cake? Lasagna Grilled Cheese?

I could go on and on–no really, I could–but I’ll spare you any more of my food love 🙂

But, really, how do you narrow it down when they’re all so delicious and amazing?

Well, on the bright side of reality, unless Lost actually comes to life, I won’t ever (fingers crossed) have to make cuts.

Thank God.

Lasagna Grilled Cheese | A Latte FoodHave you ever had lasagna grilled cheese before?

I hadn’t. I hadn’t even heard of it until I looked in the fridge, saw the leftover lasagna, the leftover lasagna ingredients, and the bread sitting right next door. And the epiphany hit: a grilled cheese lasagna.

Whoa.

Cheesy, cheesy mozz, parm, and ricotta spread over red sauce topped with tomato slices and sandwiched between two amazing slices of buttermilk bread.

Yeah.

Lasagna Grilled Cheese | A Latte FoodHonestly, this recipe could not be easier. Or more delicious. Think pizza pocket meets calzone meets lasagna meets meatball sub.

It’s a lot of meetings, but it’s totally worth it. This sandwich is so comforting and full of such cheesy goodness that you’ll totally want to pull a Joey (Friends) and save it from a backfiring car. 🙂

You start by buttering two pieces of bread (I used Buttermilk bread, but sourdough, shepherds, english muffin bread, etc. would all totally be great here) on a bread board. Flip the bread so that the butter side is facing down.

Spread a little pasta sauce over one side of the bread and spread ricotta cheese over the over side of the bread. Place tomato slices and meatball slices (both are optional) on the pasta sauce side, then cover with mozzerella slices and a few parmesan cheese shavings. Place ricotta piece of bread on top of cheese, and grill the sandwich on each side for about 2-3 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

    I cannot quite express how much I want this right now. I think I actually have everything for it too! *runs off to scrounge around in kitchen and crosses fingers that the bread isn't moldy again*
