Hallelujah and haul out the tambourines. It’s National Grilled Cheese Month!

Grilled cheese. A brilliant choice by whoever is the event-of-the-month designator. Wouldn’t that be an awesome assignment? Deciding what is worthy of a whole month of celebrating? Job envy. Kinda like the guy that gets to choice the names of wall paint colors.

A whole month to say its okay and perfectly reasonable to eat grilled cheese every day.

I first discovered Grilled Cheese Month thanks to Clementine Bakery in West Los Angeles. Every April they celebrate the entire 30 days with 15 grilled cheese specials that make you say, “Whoa, I gotta get me some of that.”

From the Philly Cheespaocalypse to the Cuban Sandwich Crisis, these sandwich makers know how to put a spin on the traditional grilled cheese.

For the month of April I’ll be sharing my ode to the grand grilled cheese. Each week I’ll feature a cheesey compilation—pure melt-worthy goodness between golden pieces of toasty bread. Week one starts now.

    This was phenomenal! I used spinach instead of arugula only because I had it on hand and I added a little feta and OMG…to die for! Thanks for the recipe!

    Grilled cheese month? Hell yes! I actually just saw quesadillas made with grapes and now here’s your grilled cheese with grapes… I think I need to get on this grilled grapes bandwagon. Can’t wait to see your other creations! Are you entering yours in the the Wisconsin Cheese Academy contest? I think you should!
