Bread with melted cheese is a simple yet satisfying dish enjoyed worldwide, often associated with comfort food. Commonly consisting of bread—such as white, whole grain, or sourdough—and cheese melted on top, popular cheese choices include cheddar, mozzarella, or Swiss. This dish spans various cuisines, appearing as grilled cheese sandwiches in American cuisine, crostini in Italian fare, or cheese toasts in British households. Nutritionally, it provides a source of protein and calcium from the cheese and carbohydrates from the bread. Opting for whole-grain bread adds fiber and nutrients, enhancing its health value. However, it can also be high in saturated fat, sodium, and calories, especially when made with heavily processed cheeses or buttered bread. Moderation and ingredient selection are key to balancing indulgence with nutrition. Adding vegetables or lean proteins can further improve this beloved dish's health profile.
