Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese: Gooey cheese, smokey bacon, and spicy jalapenos sandwiched between 2 slices of extra crispy Texas toast.

Jalapeno Popper Grilled Cheese
According to those around me I’m a Weirdo with a capital W. It’s not because I insist on talking to my dog, or even because I think cupcakes should be a food group.

It’s because I LOVE the cold weather. This past week we’ve been experiencing chillier weather here in PA. Chillier weather makes me crave classic comfort food. What could be more comforting than a grilled cheese?

Growing up mine were made with Kraft American, however this bacon jalapeno popper grilled cheese is a bit “fancier”. This bacon jalapeno popper grilled cheese would be perfect for watching the big game too (Go Cowboys!!).

 

Love bacon and jalapenos? You’ve gotta try my jalapeno popper mac and cheese.
