It’s National Grilled Cheese month! Took me long enough but I finally have a new grilled cheese recipe for you. This is a sandwich with a muscle, made with steak, caramelized onions and sharp white cheddar!
Be sure to follow me on Instagram.
I know that I’m a bit late with a recipe for this year’s National Grilled Cheese month but I have an excuse. Wait…no I don’t, I completely forgot. I remembered back in March that one of my favorite months was coming up but got insanely busy.
This past weekend, I finished most of my school work and now I am playing catch-up on everything else. My house is a mess during finals, so lots of cleaning and laundry to do. Spring cleaning is also in order but my Spring cleaning starts in late April. I love it though…I hate junk and have a field day, throwing away all the old stuff we don’t touch anymore. I make hubs sort out and toss his stuff too… He is such a pack rat.
After a long morning of cleaning, we definitely need a lunch that will make it all worth it.
This grilled cheese is sure to satisfy your hungry tummy. I used an eye round steak because it tender, thin and cooks in a flash. I also used sharp white cheddar cheese to give this sandwich some flavor attitude!
