Grilled cheese is classic and when eating them we’re instantly brought back to our childhood. Melted cheese smothered between two thick slices of buttered bread—just the thought of them has us drooling. But what if we told you that you can make grilled cheese even better? These five upgrades take grilled cheese to the next level.

Be Creative with the Bread

There’s no reason why grilled cheese has to be made with bread. Why not swap glazed donuts for bread? It’s the perfect combination of sweet and salty.

Add Veggies

Make grilled cheese a bit more nutritious by adding sautéed vegetables like spinach, tomatoes, and artichoke. You’ll love the complexity of flavor veggies add to the sandwich.

Make it Sweet

Make a dessert grilled cheese with Nutella and brie cheese for an extra special sweet sandwich.

Add Fruits

Fruit and cheese pairs so well together so why not add it to your sandwich? Figs, apples, strawberries pears, grapes, and dried cranberries are great additions to classic grilled cheese.

Deli Meats

Add a meatiness to your sandwich with deli meats like turkey, ham, pastrami, or salami. Melted cheese and salty meat are a match made in heaven in grilled cheese.
