Did you know that April 12 is Grilled Cheese Day? Celebrate the foodie holiday by whipping up one of these updated versions of the popular sandwich. We found sweet and savory twists on the classic favorite, so there is a tasty grilled cheese for everyone.

Donut Grilled Cheese With Bacon + Maple Glaze

Part dessert, part cheese sandwich, this donut version is one epic twist on the original. Plus, it’s super easy to make; all you need to do is pick up your fave donut (you can get a bacon and maple one like this) and your cheese of choice and grill them to deliciousness.


Loaded Veggie Grilled Cheese Sandwich

While the grilled cheese sandwich may not be the healthiest meal, you can add some veggies to get your daily servings of greens. This recipe calls for avocado and spinach. Oh, and make sure you have lime on had to add some zest.


Bacon Cheeseburger Grilled Cheese Casserole

This recipe will give you a delicious meal to feed the whole family. You’ll need shredded cheese and bread, of course, but you’ll need ground beef, bacon bits, ketchup, and mustard for the burger part of this casserole.


Air Fryer Grilled Cheese

Air fryers are all the rage when it comes to kitchen appliances, so why not use it to make a grilled cheese? In addition to the usual bread and cheese needed to make this, try adding some butter or mayonnaise to give it a creamy taste.


Fried Egg Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Want to try something different for breakfast? Grab some Texas toast, eggs, and Colby jack and pepper jack cheese for a scrumptious breakfast sandwich you’ll want to make again and again.


Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese

Can’t decide between pizza and grilled cheese? Why not both? The ingredients are pretty similar to what you’d need to make a pizza: mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.


Brie, Apple, and Cranberry Grilled Cheese

There’s something about brie and apples that just makes such a delicious combo. You’ll want to use a sturdy bread like sourdough so the sandwich holds up once you add the cranberry sauce, apple slices, and brie.


BBQ Chicken Grilled Cheese

Calling all barbecue lovers; this is one recipe you have to try. In addition to shredded chicken, you’ll want to get out barbecue and Worcestershire Sauce, red onion, paprika, and Havarti cheese.


Bacon, Pear, and Fig Grilled Cheese

10 minutes is all that stands between you and this sweet sandwich. After slicing the pears, dried figs, and bacon, just add white cheddar cheese and sourdough bread and grill it in the pan.


Honey Banana Grilled Cheese

If you’ve ever wanted to skip straight to dessert, this is the recipe for you. The sweetness of the bananas and honey pair perfectly with the Mascarpone cheese to make one scrumptious treat.
