Story time: I made this grilled cheese because it was a cold morning and I needed a warm lunch that brought comfort and nostalgia, I have only eaten this meal once before and I have to say for making it at home it was very delicious. Instead of artisan bread my husband made fresh baked bread and it was all around a good time in the kitchen and a great lunch all around.
