Grown Up Grilled Cheese with Basil Aioli is full of flavor and good nutrition. Fortify your grilled cheese with healthy substitutes like replacing processed cheese with part-skim, all natural mozzarella cheese and high fat mayonnaise for Greek yogurt. A handful of spinach adds beneficial fiber and vitamins and minerals. And swapping white bread for a high fiber, low carbohydrate tortilla helps to prevent your blood sugar from spiking.
