I don’t understand the hype. The recipe was okay, but nothing extraordinary. The onions were too sweet for my taste.
This patty melt is so delicious! I made it with cheddar and it turned out amazing. My family loved it! 😊
Why is everyone saying to use Swiss cheese?? Cheddar is way better! Just my opinion.
