8 Ways To Take Grilled Cheese To The Next Level

Updated Published
This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Northwestern chapter.

When it comes to comfort food, grilled cheese definitely meets the description. As it gets colder, a late night run to Cheesie’s doesn’t seem so great. Don’t worry – we’ve got you covered. Make your own gourmet grilled cheese sandwich with these simple add-ins. Grab some bread and cheese, and bring Cheesie’s directly to your kitchen.

1. Nutella

We know how hard it is to choose between the cheese and chocolate fondue…spread Nutella on each slice so you can have your cake and eat it too.

2. Potato Chips

Grab a handful of your favorite chips, and crunch them between the bread.

3. Pesto

Smear some pesto on each slice of bread for a more savory sandwich.

4. Apples

Slice up a Granny Smith apple and throw it on top. We recommend Swiss for this sandwich.

5. Avocado

Who doesn’t like avocado? Obviously someone who’s never tried it. Chop up avocado until it’s creamy and spread a layer on each slice.

6. Arugula, Turkey and Tomato

Grab some turkey, a handful of arugula and a few slices of tomato.

7. Ham and Bacon

Listen up meat-lovers! Fry up some bacon and add extra ham. There’s never too much.

8. Veggie DeLite: Tomato, Onion and Arugula

Add a couple slices of tomato and onion and a handful of arugula for a pop of color and flavor.

Like this? We figured. Why don’t you pin it?
