Sweet potatoes are perfect this time of year—a twist on a grilled cheese that will make you fall in love. Tomato soup and warm melted cheese with a touch of sweetness wrapped up all together.
I love creating meals that make me feel like the people eating the regular grilled cheese are missing out. Perfect for meatless Monday or bringing some bright color into a gloomy winter day, bursting with summer flavor from the bruschetta.
Serve with some Grilled Spice Gazpacho
Notes
