Description

A twist on a classic! Feta, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach add a Mediterranean flair to this comforting grilled cheese.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 slices (2 slices) sandwich bread
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) crumbled sheeps milk feta cheese
  • 1 tsp sun dried tomatoes packed in oil, sliced or chopped
  • 2 slices (2 slices) Muenster cheese
  • 4-5 leaves (4-5 leaves) Baby spinach leaves

Instructions

  1. Lightly toast the bread slices.
  2. Butter one side of one slice and place it butter-side down in a nonstick pan over medium heat.
  3. Arrange 1 slice of Muenster cheese, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, and spinach leaves on top. Top with the remaining slice of Muenster cheese.
  4. Butter the other slice of bread and place it on top, butter-side up, to make a sandwich.
  5. Cook over medium heat for 4–5 minutes per side, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use a good quality olive oil to butter the bread instead of regular butter.
  • If sun-dried tomatoes are too intense, reduce the amount or use a milder option like roasted red peppers.
  • To prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy, ensure the spinach is thoroughly dried before adding it to the filling.
