NATIONAL CHEESE TOAST DAY

On September 15, National Cheese Toast Day savors the cheesy goodness of this classic dish.

#CheeseToastDay

Simple but delicious, cheese and toast go well together. A little butter helps everything meld together nicely, too. The crustier the bread, the better. It makes an excellent side dish, but cheese toast also serves up a satisfying snack.

While food holidays aren't in short order on the calendar, we can't surpass them because of the carb count. Cheese and toast perfectly combine to dunk into soup. In the middle of dinner conversation, a chunk of cheese toast waved in the air emphatically punctuates your story, especially when finishing a monologue with a satisfying bite.

It might surprise many to know the treat was created by Del Johnson. In 1958, he opened his first Sizzler restaurant. It was an instant success. And although the recipe changed a bit over the years, the concept of Cheese Toast hasn't.

Over 60 years later, Cheese Toast continues to be a favorite dish across the country. With the best cheeses and bread, served up as an appetizer, with soup or with the main course, cheese toast pairs well with many dishes.

HOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL CHEESE TOAST DAY

Whether snacking or craving comfort food, cheese toast fits the bill. Order up some Cheese Toast for lunch or dinner. If you don't have a Sizzler near you, try your hand at making Cheese Toast at home. Share photos or your recipes using #CheeseToastDay on social media.

NATIONAL CHEESE TOAST DAY HISTORY

Sizzler USA founded National Cheese Toast Day in 2015 to celebrate this flavorful combination.

The Registrar at National Day Calendar declared the day to be celebrated on September 15th annually.

NATIONAL DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER DAY

As one of America's favorites, National Double Cheeseburger Day on September 15 recognizes a food icon savored across the U.S. We are bringing you double the taste on this delicious food holiday.

#DoubleCheeseburgerDay

A double cheeseburger is more than seasoned ground beef, grilled and placed between two slices of bread or a bun. It's double the patties, topped with cheese, sauteed onions, peppers, pickles, and sliced onions,. Once you add condiments such as ketchup, mustard, or mayo you create a modern American version a hamburger. We get hungry just thinking about it!

While the day is about the double cheeseburger, that doesn't mean you can't add your favorite toppings. When it comes to adding some tanginess to a burger, a few ingredients never fail. Goat cheese brightens a burger every time. But if you're looking for a crispness, too, add some creamy coleslaw instead. Another option in this category is the reliable tartar sauce.

If you like to bring the heat, you can look to your cheeses. Pepper jack is a mild way of adding some spice. However, if you prefer to test the limits, fresh sliced jalapenos or habaneros will also do the trick.

It is most likely that the hamburger sandwich first appeared in the 19th or early 20th centuries, but there is much controversy over its origin. Over the years, the hamburger has become a culinary icon in the United States.

And Americans love their burgers! Restaurants dedicated to making them just right have been in business for generations. Even those who refrain from red meat don’t hesitate to find a way to enjoy a juicy burger. Whether the burger is charbroiled, grilled or barely kisses the heat, there’s a flavor for you.

So when something this delicious exists, double it! Then celebrate it!

HOW TO OBSERVE DOUBLE CHEESEBURGER DAY

"Cheese Toast"? Is he talking about a grilled cheese sandwich?

Good!

Just bought some Whole Milk Mozzarella - sick of the low-fat/non-fat type that doesn’t melt correctly and tastes like cardboard.

Will be using it to make turkey tetrazzini tonight.
