Blackberry Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Blackberry Grilled Cheese Sandwich is made with your favorite cheese plus mashed blackberries and honey! Add fresh thyme or basil to make it your own. 

This grilled cheese recipe is very simple. I use fontina, brie or mozzarella cheese because I love the combination with blackberries, but you can use any of your favorite cheeses. Gently mash blackberries, spread over your favorite bread, drizzle with honey and grill. You can also add fresh thyme or basil to elevate the flavor even more. Berries and cheese make everything better, so combine them together in this easy delectable sandwich that both kids and adults will love.
