Zesty Turkey-Cranberry Grilled Cheese

Grilled Cheese.

I could eat these all day everyday. So when my friends at Borden ®  asked me if I’d whip up a grilled cheese with Thanksgiving leftovers, I knew right away what that grilled cheese would be. I could taste the amazing-ness before I’d grilled it up!

Because turkey plus cranberry sauce plus spicy mustard plus Pepperjack cheese is pretty much the perfect equation for an amazing Thanksgiving leftovers grilled cheese!

Borden ® ‘s Pepperjack cheese has just the right amount of ZEST to send this grilled cheese sandwich into the remarkable category.
