Prepare the Bread and Cheese
Take four slices of sourdough bread and layer one slice of cheddar cheese and one slice of mozzarella cheese on two of the bread slices. Place the prepared tomato slices on top of the cheese and then cover with the remaining slices of cheese, completing the sandwiches.
Cooking
- 3
Butter the Bread
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the outer side of each sandwich to ensure a golden brown crust when grilling.

Grill the Sandwiches
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet, buttered side down. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown, then carefully flip and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden and crispy.

Slice and Serve
Once the sandwiches are grilled to perfection, remove them from the skillet. Let them cool for a minute, then slice them in half and serve with an optional side of tomato soup or salad.
