Growing up I always loved it when my mom made garlic bread so I could put my spaghetti on top and eat it like a sandwich. Leftovers I loved eating on plain white bread. As an adult, I like to take my spaghetti and garlic bread to a new level by putting them together with a few extra ingredients.
The Spaghetti Grilled Cheese Sandwich
The First Step Is Acquire or Make Spaghetti!
Leftover spaghetti from a restaurant works great or you can make your own. If you want to make your own all you basically need are spaghetti noodles and sauce. I love meat sauce because the meat gives the spaghetti a better flavor and more substance.
Here's My 20 Minute Recipe For Spaghetti
| Step 1. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a dash of salt to the water. Once the water is boiling put your spaghetti noodles in the water and cook until it is tender but not mushy. |  |
| Step 2. Cook Your Meat: I had ground beef on hand but sometimes I mix it with ground sausage. I cook it until all the pink is gone. Drain any grease out. |  |
| Step 3: Add Your Sauce: My mom always used Hunts meat flavored sauce. There are better sauces out there but sometimes I love Hunts just because it reminds me of childhood. Use whatever sauce you want. | 
|
| Step 4: The Secret Ingredients: Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning and Italian Seasoning: My mom is cajun so she always put cajun spice in her spaghetti. I use Tony Chachere's in spaghetti sauce, hamburgers, meatloaf, soups....pretty much anything. It's a great spice. I use about half a teaspoon. It gives the spaghetti a bit of a kick but it's not too spicy with just half a teaspoon. I also add half a teaspoon of Italian Seasoning. It adds a little something to the sauce. Heat the sauce until you see a little grease rise on top of the sauce. |

Mix Noodles And Sauce And You Have Spaghetti!
Now Onto The Spaghetti Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Step 1: Butter two pieces of bread. Whatever bread you want to use. I used white bread but french bread would also be great. Go crazy and be creative. You could even use a tortilla shell and make a spaghetti burrito! Sprinkle a bit of garlic powder onto the butter if you want a garlic bread flavor.
Step 2: Warm your spaghetti. I used leftover spaghetti so mine was cold. Warm it up just a bit. You don't want it steaming. If it is straight out of the fridge then you risk having a cold center to your sandwich.
Step 3: Heat a pan on medium-high heat. Put one piece of bread butter side down.
Step 4: Put on your cheese. I used mozzarella and a dash of parmesan but my husband likes cheddar cheese.
Step 5: Put the spaghetti on top of the cheese.
Step 6: Put another layer of cheese then put your other piece of bread on the top.
Step 7: Cook until golden brown then flip over. Cook again until golden brown and your done!
The bread is buttery and crispy. The cheese is gooey. I made this sandwich a little light because it was lunch so I didn't want a thick sandwich. You could load it up with more spaghetti, meatballs, more cheeses.
That looks delicious! Interesting take on a grilled cheese. I like the cajun seasoning idea! Spicy is best
