Grilled cheese is such a classic sandwich.  Many people have created different versions using different cheeses and breads.  I don’t think I have ever met someone who didn’t like a good homemade grilled cheese.  It reminds me of childhood and enjoying it with a cup of tomato soup for dipping.

A good cheese and bread are obviously important for making it the best; so I partnered up with Kerrygold Cheese ,one of my favorite brands, to create these 2 delicious grilled cheese sandwiches just for you.  The first one is a jalapeño and bacon grilled cheese using Kerrygold Blarney cheese and the classic Kerrygold Dubliner, but it’s also an inside and out grilled cheese.  The second I made a doughnut grilled cheese with fig jam, which I used Kerrygold Dubliner.  I hope you enjoy these little creations.
