These good ole American grilled cheese sandwiches will show your children just
how loved they are on Valentine’s Day.  Use heart shaped cookie cutters to cut
each sandwich into different size edible hearts for the kids to enjoy.

If  you want to make this just a little healthier try using whole grain bread, and slices from a block of cheddar cheese. This is a great way to introduce your kids to healthier alternatives while still serving something very familiar. There’s no better way to show you love your kids than to help them learn how to make healthy choices when it comes to food.
