Remember when grilled cheese meant nothing more than bread, cheese and butter? It turns out that’s all just a starting point for this cheesy hand held favorite. Help your grilled cheeses grow up by stacking them high with all kinds of fun add-ins, such as banana, kale, and meatballs. With just a little creativity, grilled cheese can mature into a cheesy meal worthy of lunch, dinner and even dessert!
Try these grown-up grilled cheese recipes from The Hudson http://www.thehudsonla.com/ for a tasty twist on a kid favorite. They are from Executive Chef Blas Clemente. The method for all of these after you assemble is to grill them.
