This is the final day of my favorite grilled cheese sandwiches and I'm doing one for the boys. (To see the other sandwiches, click
here and
here.) I think most people would agree that grilled cheese is excellent kid food. I mean, it's on pretty much every kid's menu out there regardless of the type of restaurant. However, much like the Mister, my oldest would really prefer to not eat grilled cheese. Instead, E has started asking for grilled p.b.j. It was his idea and I humored him at first, but have come to see the genius of it--crispy, buttery bread plus warm jam and peanut butter is so delicious.
On the other hand, Camo would have grilled cheese for every meal of the day if he could and sees no need to trade the cheese for anything else. I'm happy to cook each of them their favorite sandwich, but all the same decided to find something that they both would like and that would be grilled brie with blackberry jam. They love this and I'll admit, so do I.
The boys have both become cheese lovers like the Mister and I, but if (you or) your kids aren't crazy about brie, mozzarella is a great substitute here. And adding some crispy bacon or prosciutto really ups the "yum" factor.

What's on your ultimate grilled cheese sandwich?

I'm thinking some sun dried tomatoes, grilled onions and smoked gouda. Maybe.
