• You will want this almost to the top of the crock.
• Add one TBS of grated cheese to broth mixture in each crock and stir gently.
• Place two slices of provolone and two slices swiss atop each crock.
• Carefully use baking pan to transport the crocks to your broiler unit, closest to the heat unit.
• Broil the crocks in the pan until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly, anywhere from 5-10 minutes.
• Serve crocks on separate plates.
• For carbers, you can add a thick slice of toasted bread to the soup, before the sliced cheeses go on, just adjust the amount of broth mixture to each crock.
