    Unbelievably delicious! It took rather long to prepare everything but it was definitely worth it. I asked the deli to slice me 8 slices of manchego which worked out to $1/slice so not that pricey. However, for 8 slices (what is required is it definitely a lot less than 1lb worth. All 5 of us who had the sandwiches absolutely loved them. The flavor was delightful and addictive. I will definitely make again.

    One of the best ever! Had them last night for dinner because they are that worthy! We couldn't afford the whole lb of Manchego, so we took Jeff's advice from this month's magazine and used Swiss for half. Although the two cheeses are different in their natural state, once melted you couldn't tell the difference. We will go all Swiss from now on. We can't believe how these flavors meld so perfectly. We added ham to the meat eaters sammy's and it was a hit! Bravo, Sandwich King!

    Definitely one of the BEST vegetarian sandwiches I've ever had! Well worth the effort -- I make the onions and squash ahead of time and make these sandwiches all week!

    I made this for a girl's weekend brunch on multigrain bread and everyone loved it. Excellent grown up grilled cheese!

    This sandwich is totally perfect. My husband loves it and neither of us even noticed that it was a vegetarian dinner, really. The chili powder and maple syrup combo gives the squash an amazing savory-sweet taste and the almonds give it a great crunch. The onions always take me forever -- I wonder if maybe I'm not getting them sliced thin enough? -- but they're gorgeous when done. The hardest part is not eating the squash and onions before they make it into the sandwich!

    My husband and I made this and were simply blown away by all of the flavors. We did have to reduce the amount of cheese but perhaps we just needed bigger bread. We were doubtful that we were going to be able to fit all of the ingredients and not have them all squeeze out but if you follow the directions it all melts together nicely with minimal dump-age. Warning, this is a HEARTY sandwich and will fill you up quickly!! We will definitely be making it again.

    This sandwich was amazing!! I can't eat onions, so I added the balsamic with the maple syrup when I roasted the squash and it was super tasty. Cheesy and creamy and a bit spicy, a real winner and I can't wait to make it again!!
