Grilled Cheese #Recipe: Turkey and Brie with Apricot

In our house, soup and sandwiches are a perfectly acceptable dinner. Once of our favorite sandwiches to have for dinner is the classic grilled cheese. Grilled cheese is comfort food…warm and gooey and reminding me of my childhood. Back then, grilled cheese consisted of 2 pieces of white bread with good old Velveeta cheese melted inside. Tasty, yes, but not exactly awe inspiring. I was recently sent a copy of the cookbook 150 Best Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

to review and was thrilled with the selection of exotic grilled cheese recipes to choose from. So, here is the one we had for dinner tonight. If you love a good grilled cheese sandwich I highly recommend you check out this cookbook.
