I have some warm and fuzzy memories from childhood of my mom making us kids a grilled cheese sandwich with a bowl of piping hot tomato soup. It was the best meal for a cold winters night.

Back then grilled cheese bread options were pretty limited. You had your plain white bread and if you were lucky 2 slices of American cheese instead of one.

The new Sara Lee Artisan Bread makes the perfect vreakfast grilled cheese sandwich. Cooked golden brown and stuffed full of bacon, eggs, potatoes and cheese for the Ultimate Breakfast Grilled Cheese Sandwich recipe via flouronmyface.com

This month is National Grilled Cheese month and you can celebrate National Grilled Cheese Day which happens to be April 12th with the new Sara Lee® Artesano™ Bread and make this awesome Ultimate Breakfast Grilled Cheese Sandwich.

Instead of making your favorite grilled cheese sandwich with plain old white bread the new Sara Lee® Artesano™ bread can turn that grilled cheese sandwich into a masterpiece.

Sara Lee Artesano Style Bread is available at Walmart (AD) via flouronmyface.com

Each soft, thick slice of Sara Lee® Artesano™ bread is made without artificial flavors, colors or high fructose corn syrup and  tastes just like a piece of homemade Artisan style bread.

If you love the flavor of bakery style Artisanal bread but don't have the time to make it yourself now you can buy a loaf of Sara Lee® Artesano™ bread at the store.

I also made french toast with it and I will never use plain old sandwich bread again for my french toast. No more soggy floppy pieces of egg dipped bread when making french toast.

It is perfect for paninis (I've got to get a paninis press asap!), bread pudding or any other recipe that calls for bakery style bread.

The new Sara Lee® Artesano™ bread is the newest addition to the Sara Lee® bread line.

One of the few places you can buy this new thick sliced artisanal quality sandwich bread is at Walmart. And it is on Rollback for $2.00.

The Walmart Rollback deal will be available until 7/13/2016 so grab a couple of loaves like I did and make an awesome Ultimate Breakfast Grilled Cheese Sandwich!

    This looks simply amazing! We will be adding it to our menu next month and trying it out it's spring time so we are getting tons of eggs from our chickens right now! I'm sure we will love it, if you add bacon to anything it makes it delicious. Sharing with my followers, thanks for linking up with Inspire Me Monday. Have a wonderful week!!
