3 Must-Try Recipes for National Grilled Cheese Day

Seriously, there is a whole DAY devoted to my favorite sandwich!? 

Yes. Yes there is. 

There are a few simple pleasures in life. Toasty, buttery bread with melted cheddar, maybe a slice of ham, dunked in a bowl of tomato soup is one of them. But for something different, here are three mouthwatering gourmet combos to try: 

1. French Onion Grilled Cheese 

I don’t even think this picture needs a caption. Onions caramelized in heavy cream, Sourdough bread, and Gruyere…all that can be said is NOM. Recipe from Sweetsonian. 

2. Buffalo Chicken Grilled Cheese

Shredded cooked chicken combined with a classic Buffalo sauce, a creamy ranch sauce, crisp celery and red onion, and gooey grated cheddar, piled high on Italian bread. Recipe from Tracey’s Culinary Adventures.

3. Strawberries, Chocolate, and Brie Grilled Cheese

A dessert grilled cheese! Why not? This looks so decadent, with dark chocolate, roasted strawberries, and my favorite cheese, Brie. I think I would definitely try this on brioche-go big or go home, right? Recipe from Smells Like Home.
