Add some bacon, tomato, spinach leaves, whatever you like.
Make a monte cristo (ham and cheese dipped in egg and grilled like French toast)!
Monte Cristos! That is my favorite way to pep up even a basic grilled cheese. Try different cheeses, smoked gouda is fantastic(try it in the deli department before buying, some people dont like the smokey flavor) Havarti, garlic cheddar, provolone, pepper jack, colby jack, muenster....all super yummy for a grilled cheese
My favorite is Turkey and Strawberries with Havarti. You can make it with ham and turkey and whatever cheese you like.

I've added bologna or spam to mine...or you could try ham, sausage or eggs.

Have you ever heard of a Croque Monsieur? It's the French version. I have a recipe but I'm on my phone so can't post it right now.
