Smoked Gouda, Bacon and Ranch Grilled Cheese {with Hidden Valley Ranch}

Smoked Gouda, Bacon and Ranch Grilled Cheese {with Hidden Valley Ranch}

I’ve never been much of a sandwich eater.  Actually, that’s not true.  I pack a sandwich in my lunch to take to work more days than not.

Boring.

But with Hidden Valley’s four new sandwich spreads and dips, including Spicy Chipotle Pepper, Oven Roasted Garlic Parmesan, Smoked Bacon Ranch, and Country Herb Ranch, you can create endless possibilities of new, craveable sandwiches.

What I love most about these spreads is that they are made with cream cheese and white beans, and contain one-third the calories of mayonnaise and only two grams of fat per serving.  Pretty awesome, right?

I used the Smoked Bacon Ranch to make a kicked up, grown-up style Smoked Gouda, Bacon and Ranch Grilled Cheese sandwich…which is pretty much the best grilled cheese sandwich I’ve ever eaten.

Click on over to Relish to check out my grilled cheese sandwich, and find a ton of other awesome ways to create absolutely non-boring sandwiches using Hidden Valley’s new Sandwich Spreads & Dips.

Hello There!

Interestingly enough, I didn’t grow up with an interest in cooking.  In fact, I informed my mother on multiple occasions that I was not getting an advanced education so I could spend my evenings preparing meals.
