15 Kid-Friendly Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

These kid-friendly grilled cheese sandwiches are a great transition from basic to gourmet grilled cheese. Perfect for pickier palates!

Today kicks of National Grilled Cheese Month and I couldn't be happier. I find it just as wonderful as Christmas, except with this holiday I get to enjoy 29 more days of happiness.

There are all kinds of gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches on the Interwebs including my meatball marinara grilled cheese sandwich and chicken marsala panini (it has goat cheese so it totally counts). Unfortunately half of my kids don't appreciate "gourmet" so our usual go-to grilled cheese is the standard American or medium cheddar on sandwich bread.

Knowing full well there had to be other options for those with underdeveloped palates, I scoured the same Interwebs for more options and found these 15 kid-friendly grilled cheese sandwiches. I feel like these are the perfect transition from basic grilled cheese to gourmet.
