The weather turning chillier by the day, we thought this warm sandwich would be a perfect choice for this week's SWAT (Sharing with a Theme).

We put the Culinary Content Network to the test to come up with creative grilled cheese sandwiches, and here are some of the highlights:

Haley Willard, Associate Editor at The Daily Meal, brings us a grilled cheese on slightly sweet challah bread stuffed with brie, mango and a bit of pesto.

Peter Block of Feed Your Soul Too brings us a two-cheese sandwich. Mozzarella and smoked gouda are the perfect background for not-too-hot hatch chiles.

This week's winner comes from Betsy at Desserts Required. Sandwich mascarpone between two slices of chocolate cherry, all topped with blackberry compote for a delicious take on dessert.

All of the recipes featured can be made at home for about $20 or less, excluding the cost of small amounts of basic ingredients such as butter, oil, flour, sugar, salt, pepper, and other dried herbs and spices.

A grilled cheese for that moment when you can't decide whether you want sweet or savory. Creamy, tangy chèvre with mild Cheddar play opposite sweet honey and fig preserves for an explosion of flavor that will make you forget about plain grilled cheese. Click here to see the recipe.
