National Grilled Cheese Day
For obvious reasons, the Food & Beverage Team at MMC loves any excuse to partake in eating and drinking (see Amy’s post about Bacon Bash). So when we learned that April 12th was National Grilled Cheese Day, we knew a celebration was in order. What’s more, we wanted to use this opportunity to showcase our client Arnold/Oroweat breads and share them with our co-workers.
Fellow foodie Amy Grosheider and I set out to the local grocery store, armed with a grocery list and a dream. I headed straight to the bread aisle where I carefully selected some Sandwich Thins, a loaf of Arnold Country White, and one of Arnold 100% Whole Wheat. We chose several different types of cheese: mozzarella, cheddar, American, and Pepper Jack as well as bacon, prosciutto, tomatoes, and apples (is your mouth watering yet?)
Upon returning to the office, we broke out the panini press (yes, we have one at the office for these types of occasions) and started to prepare all the fixings for a grilled cheese feast. All it took was the scent of cooked bacon wafting from the microwave to quickly pack the 12th floor kitchen with hungry co-workers.
I found myself in somewhat of a conundrum—what do I put on my sandwich? I decided to go with a little of everything: cheddar, bacon, tomato, and apple on Arnold Country White bread. Well, I didn’t hate it!
National Grilled Cheese Day 2010 = success!
