Grilled Cheese Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Spread pesto on one side of each slice of bread. On the non-pesto side of one slice, layer mozzarella cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, pesto side down.

  2. 2

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip the sandwich and grill the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown, about another 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Cut in half and serve with marinara sauce on the side for dipping. Enjoy with a bag of Boulder Canyon gluten-free chips.
