In the U.S. April 12th is National Grilled Cheese Day. Crispy bread and melted cheese, how can something so simple be so delicious? This was my absolute favorite sandwich as a kid, the type of bread and cheese made no difference, although my Mom usually used American cheese on Wonder Bread. For me, this was the ultimate comfort food and paired with a bowl of hot soup I could dip it in, it was nirvana.Â
Confession time. Even though I have upgraded my taste in cheeses and bread, this is still my comfort food of choice. And if I am being perfectly honest, the very meltable American cheese is a hit. I do prefer a good sourdough or rye bread, but wheat will do as well.Â
