Description

This Italian-inspired grilled cheese sandwich features salty sun dried tomatoes, tangy feta, and creamy mozzarella between buttery toasted bread.


Ingredients

Units
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted organic butter
  • 2 slices oat nut bread or other sliced bread for toasting
  • 1/4 cup sun dried tomatoes, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
  3. Place one slice of bread butter-side-down onto the skillet.
  4. Top with sun dried tomatoes, feta, and mozzarella.
  5. Place the other slice of bread butter-side-up on top.
  6. Grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  7. Remove from skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • A pinch of Italian seasoning or a few basil leaves deepens it.
  • Best eaten straight away, while the cheese is still molten.
  • Keep leftover ingredients separate and build fresh sandwiches as needed.
