Recipe from Disney's Hollywood Studios Woody's Lunch Box

Grilled 3-Cheese Sandwich

Entering into Toy Story Land in Hollywood Studios, you feel like you are shrunken down to the size of a toy. And when you are a kid, there is nothing better than a gooey grilled cheese sandwich. The one’s at Woody’s Lunch Box are some of the best I’ve ever had. 

We were so excited when Disney released the official recipe, however, we were a bit dissappointed when we made it. To us, it does not taste the same as the one in the park. Plus, the menu description states different ingredients. So we made our own version based on the menu, which we think tastes much closer. We are sharing both recipes so you can try for yourself.
