One loaf of Rosemary Olive Oil bread from Costco (or any hearty bread of your choice)
Goat cheese
Asiago cheese (or any other creamy white cheese of choice)
Flat leaf parsley
Basil
Butter
The team members:
Preheat a cast iron pan over medium heat. 
In the meantime, prepare your fillings. Finely chop the parsley and basil. Gently mix them together and set the blend aside. Grate the asiago cheese and set aside. Cut loaf of bread into 1/4" slices and pair up two slices each for the amount of sandwiches you need. Spread a nice layer of butter on the outsides of each pair, and place them together, butter side in, and set them aside with the inside of each pair facing up. 
Using a knife spreader, spread a nice thick layer of goat cheese on the inside of the top piece of each pair. Go ahead. Use as much as you like.
Next, sprinkle a layer of herbs over the goat cheese.
Add a thick even layer of asiago cheese on top. 
When the pan is hot, place the dressed piece of bread into the pan, butter side down. Place the second piece of bread on top (butter side out). Do not touch it, as tempting as it seems.
Allow the bread to grill for 2 or 3 minutes, or until it is nicely browned and the cheese inside begins to melt. Gently press the top piece down so it begins to seal both pieces together. When the first side is nicely browned, gently turn both pieces over to grill the other side.
Again, let it sit for at least 2 or 3 minutes. Because the bread is thick, it will take some time to form a nice grilled, buttery, sinful crust. That is how we like it. Serve immediately just as is, in all its crunchy goodness, or better yet, with a nice bowl of tomato soup (because I had that too!). 
Enjoy!
