Ham and Apple Grilled Cheese Sandwich – Transform the classic grilled cheese sandwich with a perfect combination of flavors and textures including apples, ham, and gruyere cheese!
Howdy Hey! It’s Friday and I made you a warm and flavorFUL and melty grilled cheese sandwich today! Also known as *theeeee* sandwich that I will serve leading up to AND in between the Holidays. Also, after school and sometimes during lunch… dinner, too.
I think we’ve already talked about this, but my favorite thing in life, during this time of year, is flavorful and quick, but comforting and delicious, quick snacks and meals. And even though I adore 5 course meals and candlelit dinners, sometimes, nothing else can hit the spot like a good ol’ grilled cheese can.

I’ve been trying to come up with something that I might be able to serve the day before we feast on that turkey, or even the day after. Something easy, something quick, and something good. With all the people coming in and out, and with all the conversations that will take place around the couch, I don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen missing all the fun. Besides, I want to avoid a FOMO episode at all times. I’m picturing a feast of sandwiches in the living room while we all talk and watch the game. I don’t know which game, but any game will do!
While going back and forth with my thoughts, I arrived back at this awesome Ham and Apple Grilled Cheese Sandwich and heard the angels sing.
Let me just try to describe this sandwich to you without completely melting on ya.

I was at Sam’s Club browsing around to see what I wanted to include in my sandwiches when I walked up to the deli cooler and found this brand new product: NatureRaised Farms® Uncured Smoked Sliced Ham. Looking closer, I saw that this particular sliced ham is without antibiotics, and no added hormones or growth promotants. Didn’t take too long for me to pick up a few packages and place ’em in my cart. #EatGoodCleanFun
So when I came back home, I was inspired to make a sandwich with my newfound ham, some crusty Italian bread, lots o’ cheese, apple slices, and apricot jam. Grey Poupon, too!
Let me tell you the beautiful truth: I made this in less than 5 minutes. Great recipes that are simple + quick + gorgeous in just minutes = my perfect life. This is real food for real people. In between the pumpkin pies and sweet potato casseroles, we gotta have something easy, yet cozy and yummy.
Because I also want you to get your hands on this wonderful product, I am giving away a $50 Sam’s Club Gift Card!! All you have to do is tell me, What will you make with NatureRaised Farms® Uncured Smoked Sliced Ham? Tell me in the comments for a chance to win a $50 Sam’s Club gift card!

I make something similar to your sandwich. I toast half a everything bagel, then I turn on the broiler, put the ham on top of the toasted bagel, top it with apple and red onion, then I put sharp cheddar cheese on top and broil till the cheese is browning and bubbly. The apple and red onion marry together so well and oooooooh does it taste delicious!!
I would make a creamy Ham and Potato Soup. Since it is so dang cold, I am all about the soups. Just found your blog and I LOVE IT. Your pictures are amazing, your recipes are simple, hardy and healthy and you are funny to boot.
I would make a yummy twist on eggs benedict. Thanks for the chance!
i would make baked ham and cheese sliders.
I think I would make Monte Cristo sandwiches
I would make a ham, cheese and egg breakfast burrito – not very inventive, but super yummy!
I would make some “cinnamon rolls”, except in place of the cinnamon and sugar, put ham and cheese. We make them whenever we have company over and they are a hit. Either that, or they are too polite to tell us otherwise!!
I totally agree – quick, easy, and delicious is a must around the holidays! I would definitely make this ham and apple grilled cheese sandwich! Looks so delicious!
I would make ham biscuits!
I will make a ham and grilled cheese with some soup
