Lunch It Punch It, Recipes

Cinnamon Walnut Apple Grilled Cheese

What’s your favorite grilled cheese flavor?

The cheese paired with tart and sweet flavors of this recipe makes for a delicious and different lunch treat. I appreciate my mom for introducing it to me!

Yes, I do pack grilled cheese in my lunch. It isn’t the same as off of the skillet, but I’ve had to learn to adjust my preferences or love a repetitive packed lunch menu.

    Sounds kinda funny but it is delicious. I am a meat lover and this really hit the spot when my daughter made one for me.
