What goes good with grilled cheese?!
What goes good with grilled cheese?
My daughter and her kids are coming for dinner tonight. What should I serve with grilled cheese sandwiches, which is what she suggested we have for dinner. The kids are 7 and 1. I would like to serve something somewhat healthy and inviting for the kids and the grownups. Not chips and chocolate milk, that doens't sound good to me or healthy for the kids.

vegetable soup and fruit kabobs
Tomato soup goes great with grilled cheese, make sure you use milk instead of water when making the soup

Tomato Soup.
I usually serve grilled cheese with spegetti-o's but thats not really healthy. What about a home made beef-a-roni type thing, with elbow noodles, groundbeef and tomato sause.
tomato soup is my favorite. if you really want to make it "fancy" for them, try seven-up or sprite w/ a splash of grenadine for the drink.
Tomato soup or sulfuric acid. You choose, either way, you're going to have a mess to clean up afterwards.
Also, a nice thin slice of tomato in the grilled cheese it a good choice.
A bowl of Tomato soup with Goldfish... kids love it (even the kids at heart!)
tomato soup and saltines
Clear broth with alphabet pastina.
PS - your shouldn't be giving the kids grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner... unless it's whole wheat bread and non-processed cheese. You are setting them up for the fast food marathon that most Americans are running every day. What's the rush? Go slow and show them that it's fun to stay at the table with the adults.

Tomato soup always goes good with grilled cheese also some crackers , since the kids are young i would not recommend making it to hot.
A great way to take the average grilled cheese sandwich to another level. Use Sliced sourdough bread after you spread on the butter sprinkle some garlic powder and press some grated Parmesan cheese (fresh is best) on top of the butter, add your choice of cheese, grill open faced when golden brown and cheese has melted add sliced tomato's to one slice, place the other slice on top and serve.
