Italian Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese Recipes

I can’t wait any longer for the National Grilled Cheese Month to start. I have a fun new Italian grilled cheese to share and it’s extra special because…it’s made ON GARLIC BREAD!

That extra pop of flavor that comes from making the grilled cheese on garlic bread is something special. To compliment garlic bread the best, I packed it with great Italian flavors. Pine nuts, fresh basil, prosciutto, and of course, gooey mozzarella cheese came together perfectly to make this Italian sandwich divine.

After making this grilled cheese, I fell in love with these flavors so much that I made a pasta dish and a quinoa dish using this flavor pallet. I added some pesto to the pasta dish to add moisture and make the flavors pop. As good as those dishes were thought, they didn’t quite compare to the beauty of the garlic bread grilled cheese.
