  • 3

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Try mixing it up a little by swapping out sliced apples for the bacon and using apple butter as a dipper to add a sweet note to the savory cheeses.
  • tip 2
    Give this grilled cheese a French onion soup twist by adding caramelized onions.
  • tip 3
    Looking for a little heat? Try adding sliced jalapeños. While you’re at it, sliced avocados would also make a delicious addition.
