Today is National Grilled Cheese day, perfect day to make your favorite grilled cheese sandwich. Instead of making a regular grilled cheese sandwich plain spice it up with Hormel Pepperoni or bacon. Another option is add guacamole or salsa. There are so many possibilities.

My kids were really pleased with the grilled cheese and pepperoni sandwiches. They were asking for more, and loved it.

We even did Ham and grilled cheese, with the leftover Hormel Cure81 Ham we have from Easter. My son just loved that. He said it gives it extra flavor.

Are you having grilled cheese today? What are you doing to spice it up? There are so many ways you can spice up your Grilled Cheese on National Grilled Cheese Day. My mom would warm us up on a cold day with grilled cheese and tomato soup and we would dip the grilled cheese in the soup.

Ihop is introducing another great addition to their breakfast Menu. IHops New Criss Croissants. Breakfast lovers the world over have long enjoyed the unique taste and texture of the classic French croissant—that delicate, buttery flaky pastry that practically melts in your mouth. Now, IHOP restaurants will introduce guests to a brand new way to savor that treat—by taking that distinctive dough and baking it in a waffle iron so that you have the luscious taste of a croissant with the distinctive criss-crossing of the waffle iron pattern, and voila! Criss-Croissants!

Criss Croissants are available in these flavors:

Blackberry Lemonade: A warm waffled croissant filled with refreshing lemonade cream and topped with sweet blackberries.

Strawberry Rhubarb: A warm waffled croissant filled with perfectly sweetened cream cheese, and crowned with a strawberry rhubarb topping.

I was able to try the Strawberry Rhubarb and pleasantly surprised at how sweet it is. It’s very delicious, my daughter also ordered it and it was the fastest I have ever seen her eat at a restaurant. She said it’s a bent waffle with cream and strawberries. Every girls perfect breakfast. She was literally trying to lick the plate clean.
