Thanks to Mezzetta for sponsoring this post. Traditions….they’re wonderful aren’t they? Now that I have kids of my own I’ve tried to create some of my family’s own holiday traditions.

Grilled Cheese with Pesto and Tomato

Grilled Cheese with Pesto and Tomato

Cheesey, buttery, white bread, grilled cheese. That’s how I remember eating them as a kid. Not exactly a health food, and they aren’t the easiest to light-up with the exception of reducing the amount of butter and cheese used and throwing in some veggies (or fruit) like this tomato! Although I love a good grilled…
