Martha Stewart Smoked Gouda Fontina American Grilled Cheese with Bacon and Coco Loco Caramelized Onions
Hi friends! How is your week going so far? Are you still digging your way out of the snow? Are you over snow and cold weather and ready for some comfort food?
I know I am. And I’ve got the cure for what ails ya. I’m not sure that there is a better comfort food than a big, melty, bacon-y, buter-y, grilled cheese. This one is a bit over the top with a combination of smoked gouda, fontina, and american cheeses. We also felt the need to throw in some bacon.
BTW – I have zero idea why in tarnation I have decided that I am a we. Just roll with it. And don’t judge me.
Oh. And remember these? The Coco Loco Caramelized Onions make the perfect finishing touch to this over the top grilled cheese.
I joke you not. I think we had these grilled cheese sammies at least 3 times in one week. And now that the Super Bowl is right around the corner, we’re all thinking about some football appetizers and finger food. #KeepPounding #PanthersNation
You could totally quarter these into triangles or smaller square pieces and your friends can grab one with one hand to keep the other free to Dab with Cam, Luke, Greg, and the boys with all the touchdowns we hope to make!
Until next time friends!
And just because we are super excited here in the Sweet Carolinas
