How people cook with it
Sliced Swiss cheese is a popular choice for sandwiches and snacks. It melts well, making it suitable for cooked dishes as well.
- Sandwich filling
- Melted on toast
- Snack cheese
- In casseroles
Open the package and separate the slices. Place slices on sandwiches, burgers, or wraps. For melted applications, add slices to hot dishes like grilled cheese sandwiches, omelets, or baked casseroles during the last few minutes of cooking. The cheese will soften and become gooey. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a simple snack. The mild flavor pairs well with many ingredients.

How to keep the rest
After opening, keep any remaining cheese slices tightly wrapped in their original packaging or in an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and prevent drying out. Consume within a few days for the best quality and flavor.
