We’re already a few days into National Grilled Cheese Month, and there are so many delicious varieties to try before May rolls around! To help us discover all of the possible grilled cheese combos, Stephanie of i am a food blog shares her recipe for a brussels-sprout-and-english-muffin grilled cheese. By stacking grilled english muffins high with pepper jack, cheddar, bacon, brussels sprouts, and mustard, Stephanie adds several mouthwatering twists to the classic sandwhich.
The real fun with grilled cheese starts when you change up the basics. Don’t have any bread but an abundance of English muffins? Perfect. I love using English muffins: they’re round, slightly smaller than regular bread and they have nooks and crannies that are perfect for extra browning. A grilled cheese made with an English muffin is a true revelation. An extra crispy, extra buttery, extra delicious revelation. And quickly sautéed brussels sprouts? They’re perfect in grilled cheese. Especially with bacon. Even without bacon this sandwich is a winner.
