Grilled cheese is an all-American classic that many of us not only enjoyed as kids, but still make to satisfy that childhood craving. The perfect grilled cheese should have golden brown, crispy bread with just enough butter, but not so greasy that you need a stack of napkins to clean up the mess. And, most importantly, the center should be nice and melted. Here are two great recipes that offer a little twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich, which vegetarians and meat eaters are sure to enjoy.
