If that's not enough, it's topped with a sunny-side-up duck egg and served with a skillet of lobster mac. (Ritz-Carlton Chicago )
<b>PB&J Grilled Cheese</b> What's better than combining the two great comfort-food classics: PB&J and grilled cheese?

<b>Heavenly and Healthy</b> Going healthy doesn’t mean scrimping on taste. <a target="_blank" href="http://www.healthymomskitchen.com/healthier-grilled-cheese-sprouts-recipe">HealthyMomKitchen</a> says start with homemade multigrain bread and lots of veggies like sprouts, avocado, tomatoes and pesto. Add Monterey jack, cheddar and Colby cheese. All good, right? The healthy part comes in by broiling, not frying the sandwich. (HealthyMomKitchen)
<b>Bread Alert</b> This gorgeous sandwich uses mozzarella and provolone cheeses. But key to this one, which was posted on <a target="_blank" href="http://keepyourdietreal.com/food/sandwiches/the-best-grilled-cheese-ever/">KeepYourDietReal</a>, is the bread. Try a flavorful bread like garlic focaccia, but any fresh bread would work well. (Keep Your Diet Real)
