Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich is a delicious switch up from a classic grilled cheese sandwich made with pepperoni, Italian bread, pizza sauce and fresh mozzarella.
I am bringing out my inner child a bit with this recipe. Pepperoni pizza and grilled cheese are two items I loved as a kid and foods that my both children eat without complaints! Okay, minimal complaints. The fusion of the two is really fun and completely delicious.

The perfect grilled cheese starts with a properly heated pan. Make sure your pan is preheated on a medium heat before cooking. For that nice golden brown on the bread, let each side cook until you hear that sizzle stop. Once that sizzling stops, wait just a few seconds and then flip.
