Bacon & Avocado Grilled Cheese Sandwich

In honor of National Grilled Cheese Day (April 12) I decided to share my FAVORITE grilled cheese sandwich with you today!! :)

My perfect grilled cheese has four integral ingredients that when combined together create the ultimate grilled cheese sandwich!

What You’ll Need for this Supreme Sandwich

• Buttery, crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside sourdough bread
• 4 slices of gooey, melty, colby jack cheese
• 3 slices of center-cut bacon
• 1/2 ripe avocado

This is the perfect amount of gooey cheesy goodness to crispy carb ratio.

We make this all the time on weekends. It’s the perfect meal for brunch! Sometimes I’ll even add a scrambled egg. To DIE for!!

If you like Bacon, Avocado, and Cheese, you’ll also love this cheesy Chicken Bacon Avocado Quesadilla! :)

Here’s the recipe for my favorite grilled cheese. What’s your perfect grilled cheese? Are you a bread-and-cheese-only purist? Do you have a favorite bread or cheese? Do you like extra toppings like bacon or caramelized onions? Leave a comment and let me know!! :) Happy National Grilled Cheese Day! xoxo

Notes

A perfectly ripe avocado should give a little when pressed, but not be too mushy.
