Assemble the Sandwich
On the unbuttered side of one slice, add a generous amount of the cheese blend. Sprinkle garlic powder, salt, and pepper over the cheese. Top with the other slice of bread, ensuring the buttered side is facing out.

Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich on the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Cut it into quarters for easier handling by kids, and serve warm.
