Recipe For Rainbow grilled cheese
Start off by gathering the ingredients.
Add a drop of different colors to each portion of the shredded cheese and mix with the fork until the cheese is nicely coated with color.

Place the 5 rows of shredded mozzarella cheese on one slice of bread and cover it with another slice.


Grill the sandwich on the pan on low flame for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the slices get a nice golden brown color.

Make a slight cut on the sandwich against the colors on both sides(do not cut the sandwich completely) and let your lil one stretch the cheese. Enjoyy!!!

PS: This is the most exciting thing I have ever tried in the kitchen xx.
Can you add food coloring to cheese?
Yes, to make the rainbow sandwiches you either have to color the cheese using food color (preferably neon food color) or use the colored mozzarella cheese sticks. I chose to color the cheese as I couldn’t find the latter one. Either way, they will make you happy.
What to do when you don’t have enough colors?
Here we can use the simple trick we all learned during our painting classes when we were kids. I never thought I will use those tricks for making Rainbow grilled cheese one day. LOL
Today I was not having green color with me, so I mixed the blue and yellow color in 2: 1 ratio to get the green. Similarly, Magenta + Yellow makes red and red + green yields yellow. Life is easy guyss!!!

What is the best type of cheese for a Rainbow grilled cheese sandwich?
I love the cheddar cheese on any grilled sandwich. It taste so good alone, but if you like to get that extra cheese stretch, you can always add a layer of mozzarella cheese on top of cheddar cheese.
You can use the blue cheese if you are using the fruity or nutty bread. Gruyere is perfect when you want the sweet, sharp, earthy flavor. If you prefer the sharp salty flavor, you may go with Manchego cheese as well. #cheeseislife
What else can you put on a grilled cheese sandwich?
Crispy potato chips (Lays or Raffles) with the cheddar cheese spread makes the sandwich taste heavenly. This reminds me of my hostel days, my friend (another admin of passionlog) use to bring the Almarai cheese cubes from Dammam. And for a few days, our only breakfast would be a grilled sandwich combined with crispy potato chips. Ahh that makes me Nostalgic😭
Also, the layer of garlic sauce or garlic mayonnaise with the cheese tastes great. If you know any other combination, please let us know in the comments, we would love to hear from you.
