When I am famished in the middle of the day, cheese is one of my go to things. It’s kinda my schtick. (What’s not to drool about cheese right?!) Plus, this adult grilled cheese is so amazing you will bat them off with a stick to make sure you enjoy every morsel.
Making lunches, I have to make sure that it’s packed full of protein because if it’s not you can bet that the family’s going to be hungry again ten minutes later. That’s why cheese and bacon are the perfect combo. (Come on, who doesn’t love bacon!) The kids are getting older now, and trying to keep them off of this sandwich was quite the trick.
You might think I am crazy because this sandwich only calls for 1-2 strips of bacon, but here’s the trick. Have the bacon cooked for breakfast, and then save a few slices for your lunch time sandwich. You can never have too much bacon in one day, right?! The rest is easy peasy! Check it out!

You are so right – everyone loves bacon! Grilled cheese has always been my comfort food meal. I love your tip of cooking the bacon and then saving some to make this sandwich later.

Bacon plus grilled cheese is one of my favorite combos! I never thought about using the cheese spread too! OMGoodness!

This is the type of sandwich that would definitely please the husband. I’d have to just change out the Swiss cheese for provolone. And then I’d be one very happy mama. 😉 But that Herbed Cheese spread sounds quite interesting. Never had that before. Now i”m quite curious. It sounds amazing.

I am a fan of ham and swiss sandwiches so this looks right up my alley! Going to track down the Alpine Lace as the major failure of my grilled cheeses is poorly melting cheese.

I just recently discovered herb cheese for grilled cheese sandwiches and it was so good. I wish I had thought to add bacon like you did!
