Are you like me and LOVE grilled cheese? It’s such a classic meal that I loved in my childhood, and today I still crave it! I know it’s cliche, but tomato soup and grilled cheese is one of my favorite meals! Today we’re going to make one heck of a cauliflower grilled cheese sandwich by throwing cauliflower, jalapeno peppers and shredded cheddar cheese on it. It’s ooey gooey delicious!
How to Roast Cauliflower
This is a fancy adult version of a grilled cheese sandwich since we’re adding roasted vegetables on it. Don’t worry though, it still has all the classic taste of the grilled cheese you remember from your childhood.
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Add cauliflower and jalapeno peppers (seeds removed unless you like it spicy) to a baking sheet and coat with olive oil, salt and pepper. Then bake for about 8 minutes, or until the vegetables are roasted.

I recommend using shredded cheddar cheese for this sandwich as it melts nicely into the cauliflower, but you could also use slices or thinly cut a block of cheddar cheese up too. I find that if you’re using block cheese it might take a couple more minutes to melt.
What’s the Best Bread for Grilled Cheese?
I find that this differs per person, and honestly I’m down for any bread for a grilled cheese, but in my opinion a hearty bread, like a whole wheat or sourdough makes the best grilled cheese sandwiches. For classic sakes, my Mom used to make grilled cheese on white bread, so I’m not saying you can’t do that, because my Mom made one heck of a delicious grilled sandwich, but if you’re looking for something more hearty, especially to hold all these vegetables, look for a good thick sliced wheat bread.
