Let's talk about elevated comfort food. You know: when you take a comfort classic and spice it up a bit to make it more unique. Our favorite take on elevated comfort food is the Caprese Grilled Cheese. It truly ups the grilled cheese game, offering a whole new world flavor to the classic sandwich. Plus, it is an easy, delicious way to use basil grown in your AeroGarden!
