Cup of Yum
To make the sandwiches
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- Place two slices of bread, butter-side down, in the skillet and top each slice with 1 ounce of shredded cheese. Spoon the sloppy joe mixture onto one piece of bread and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bread is toasted and the cheese has melted.

- Repeat with remaining sandwiches, keeping cooked sandwiches warm in a 200 degree oven until ready to serve.
