There’s comfort food, and then there’s comfort food on overdrive. This spaghetti grilled cheese brings together two beloved classics in one gloriously melty, saucy, buttery sandwich. Between golden toasted bread, you’ll find layers of warm spaghetti and gooey cheese that fuse into a rich, indulgent filling. It’s nostalgic, playful, and absolutely irresistible.
Leftover spaghetti becomes something entirely new in this recipe — the noodles soften slightly as they warm, the sauce thickens, and the flavors concentrate. Paired with mozzarella and provolone, the filling turns creamy and stretchy with each bite. Thick-cut bread provides structure and crunch, giving you that perfect contrast between crispy exterior and molten interior.
