Why settle for regular old plain grilled cheese sandwich, when you can dress it up! This Spicy Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Black Creek® Sharp Cheddar and some smoky mozzarella will soon become your favorite go-to grilled cheese sandwich.

Who doesn’t love a good grilled cheese sandwich?! I don’t know of anyone and our family especially loves it and we can eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even a snack. I like to dress up regular old plain grilled cheese sandwiches with various other add on fillings – this Spicy Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Chili Cheese Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Masala Omelet Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Avocado Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Potato Curry Gilled Cheese Sandwich, to name a few.

And especially come summer, we are all about grilled cheese sandwiches. Whether to fire up the grill and grill the sandwich on it or to to make it on the stovetop  and pack some to take out for a picnic lunch or dinner, it is one of our go-to summer foods.

The important part in a grilled cheese sandwich, the one that makes or breaks it, is of course, the cheese! In this Spicy Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwich, I love to use Black Creek®’s Sharp Cheddar Cheese that is aged 2 years. It is smooth and creamy and the sharp aged cheese is able to stand up to the spicy tomato filling while lending its own characteristics to the sandwich.

Award winning Black Creek® cheeses are from Wisconsin’s Fox River Valley and the nutrient rich grass that the cows graze on, helps lend a very creamy yet complex flavor to this cheese, that is aged up to 3 years. Make your summer better this year with some Black Creek® Cheddar Cheese, see where you can find them near you ———-> Black Creek® Cheese
