Stuffed it in a grilled cheese sandwich – that’s how! It’s National Grilled Cheese Month and I like to try something new every year. Previous years I’ve done:
– Grilled Cheese Bar
– Caprese Grilled Cheese
– Bacon & Apple Grilled Cheese
– Taco Dip Grilled Cheese
– Philly Cheese Grilled Cheese
– Grilled Cheesecake Donut Grilled Cheese
So this year – I doubled down on the cheese and I think you can handle it!
This was a super easy recipe too – you start with Sara Lee Artesano Bread – it’s literally MADE for grilled cheese – it’s thick and hearty but soft and delish! Then you layer on a great cheddar (I like sharp white cheddar) and pre-made macaroni & cheese (I used Bob Evans from the refrigerated section). A few minutes in the pan and dinner is ready!
The sandwich is so yummy – and you don’t need a lot of cheese or macaroni to make it delicious! It’s very rich and cheesy – but you can also add things you like – bacon, etc. I added some chips in the middle for a fun crunch! You can surprise people with that one! 😉
