Cranberry Brie Grilled Cheese

I love inventing new cheese gooey grilled cheese recipes (it brings a huge smile to my Chop Happy kitchen). Cranberry Brie Grilled Cheese is extra creamy thanks to my french friend Brie cheese. The Brie melts so creamy and is perfect for this recipe! If you haven’t had Brie – it is a softer lighter cheese with a milder bite. It’s Cheddar or Gruyère’s quieter, but super nice cousin.  🙂 


One of the reasons I love grilled cheese is because it takes 5 minutes to make. Also, it always makes me feel like a five star chef, because it’s fool proof … and the sky’s the limit on endless things that you can stuff between two pieces of bread. I so can’t wait for you to try this recipe! It will be a cool new way to make your family and friends smile without them even knowing how (not) hard you worked. It will be our secret.

Here in NYC, there are lots of grilled cheese food trucks. On almost every corner I can get my cheesy fix, but nothing beats making it at home!
