A NOTE ON CALORIE COUNT, NUTRITIONAL INFO AND SERVING SIZES
Due to my past experiences, I do not include most of the above information within my recipes as it is unsafe for me to do so personally. While I try to share a rough estimate when it comes to the serving size, please note that it is very subjective as we all have different hunger levels both from person to person and even from meal to meal.
If any of the above information is important to you, I understand! We are all different and have various goals and needs. If you’d like, you are welcome to calculate the information needed based on the ingredients you use when making one of my recipes.
I hope you understand! This comes from a place of love and protection both for myself and others like me. If you ever have any questions, send me an Instagram message for the quickest response time! Thank you for being here!

Instructions
Filling Prep
- Cook the bacon in your preferred method.

Grilled Cheese
- Allow butter to melt in a pan over medium heat on the stove.
- Cover each side of both slices of bread in a thin layer of butter or mayo.
- Add cheese to both pieces of bread, then layer on apple slices, bacon, grilled onions and herbs.
- Put the two sandwich halves together and add it to the stove.
