Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cheese Dip

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the tomato sauce, cream cheese, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and basil. Stir until smooth and heated through, then set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Grilled Cheese Bites

    Butter one side of each slice of Texas toast. Place one slice, butter-side down, on a skillet over medium heat. Add a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Place another slice of Texas toast on top, butter-side up.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until 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.

  4. 4

    Slice and Serve

    Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute. Slice into bite-sized squares. Serve warm with the tomato cheese dip on the side.
