I'm not quite sure what inspired the title of today's Tasty Tuesday. It's a direct reference to “Only” most certainly. I don't know why I was just typing and I felt the essence of Lil Wayne enter my body and “Grilled cheese, the holy mecca” spoke to me. My mother also told me that “Only” wasn't a rap song today. I'm not sure what to make of that. I don't know what else it could be???
Should I call it hip-hop? |

As per usual I am running out of ideas on what to do for a Tasty Tuesday. I have not been cooking. At all. Literally nothing. I grab an apple and I go to school. I subsist on apples and water. Not even vitamin waters. It's like I'm going through a detox.
Grilled cheese has been coming to me recently, though. A lot of the people I sit with at lunch really like the grilled cheeses that our cafeteria/fast food place serves. I haven't had one, because I'm a cheap bitch and it would be diverting me from my diet of apples only.

I don't even know what I do at lunch. I'm always like, I have work to do, which is true, and I proceed to do none of it. I'm just like, this can be done later. Usually, I'm just on twitter or tumblr unless someone decides to include me in the conversation.

Lord knows I could at the very least be blogging for my favorite people. You. I feel like I didn't make that very clear. I could at the very least be struggling up more exciting concepts for Tasty Tuesdays, then I am. Honestly, what I like about this day is that forces me to think outside the box, but it also forces me to think outside the box. I appreciate it and dread it every other week.

What is a grilled cheese. That's like an existential question. The greatest existential question. Grilled cheese are what childhood is. They are what I grew up on, because I refused to eat anything. I was not a healthy child and who knows what I am now that I'm technically an adult. The version of grilled cheese I shoved into my body as a child was made out of that Home Pride bread and Colby-Jack cheese.

I'm actually curious to know what you're grilled cheeses are like. I feel like this isn't a universal experience. We don't make grilled cheeses the same way. Some use American, some use white bread, some people don't butter the bread when they grill it. Honestly, I am not fucking with you, leave a comment, tell me about your childhood grilled cheese.
That's sort of what the point of today's Tasty Tuesday is. Giving you an adult and updated look at what a grilled cheese can be. Just being real with you I completely stole this from the Cosmopolitan article. The one with Hilary Duff on the cover. I knew last month when I was reading this article that I would need this. That I would not know what to write about and I was right

Below are recipes from the classic grilled cheese to artisanial renderings. Love it. Enjoy it. Get fat. You only live once. Don't be like me and only eat apples and be sad.
Also in case I haven't been obnoxious enough about it. Something exciting (and I do use exciting tentatively) is coming. Next week. The day I was born. You will love it. And much like the Jennifer Lopez album Love? I do put a question mark after that love. Will you love? it. I'm going to say yes.

RECIPES:
The Classic Grilled Cheese
2 slices of Home Pride Bread
Copious amounts of Colby-Jack
Butter
Get a pan out and heat it up on the stove. Proceed to butter one side of each bread slice. You, then put the cheese in between the two bread slices in sandwich format. The butter sides should be on the outside. You put it in the pan, let the cheese get melty (three minutes probably), flip it over and wait another three minutes. Eat it.
As you can tell from my immaculate directions, I need to write a cookbook.
Goat Cheese, Turkey, and Avocado
2 slices of Bread
1-2 teaspoons of Goat Cheese
Sliced Avocados
Sliced Turkey Breast
Spray pan with olive oil (or just ladle the bread with butter and tell the olive oil to go fuck itself), then grill the sandwich over medium heat.
