I believe this sandwich could be a turning point in my life, marking the start of an exciting new relationship with mustard and pickles. I have never been a huge fan of mustard, and hesitated to put a bunch on this sandwich, but I did it anyways, and am sure glad I did! The mix of mustard and pickle, with the Swiss cheese, and all the hearty meat was so great!
I know this recipe isn’t much different than an actual Cuban sandwich, so to rocket it into grilled cheese territory I loaded it up with Swiss cheese! Cheese on the bottom, cheese in the middle and cheese on top! Gluing all those wonderful ingredients together into a beautiful, beeautiful sandwich! Praise Cuba!!

I made this sandwich last night and my entire family devoured them. I was astonished by how much flavor was in this combo. It was so good that my husband took part of his sandwich over to our neighbor whom also loved it and told us someone should open up a Food Truck with this as the main recipe…. SO SO GOOOOOOD!!! Thank you for sharing!!!!!
This looks insane!! I’m a total sucker for Cuban sandwiches so a grilled cheese version wouldn’t last 2 seconds in my house. Thanks for sharing!
