- 1 can 15 oz. of your favorite chili
- ⅓ cup Monterey Jack and medium Cheddar cheese cubed
- 10 oz. sliced medium Cheddar cheese
- 10 slices sourdough bread
- Tortilla chips
- Butter or butter spread
Instructies
- Empty the can of chili into a small saucepan over medium heat.

- Once the cheese has completely melted and blended into the chili, remove it from heat.

- This will help thicken the chili and make it easier to work with when building the sandwiches.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- On the unbuttered side of five slices of bread, layer slices of Cheddar cheese and spread equal amounts of the chilled chili cheese mixture.
- Add a handful of tortilla chips on top of the chili mixture, followed by more slices of Cheddar cheese.
- Top each sandwich with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side facing out.
