Ingredients:
olive oil
2 slices rye bread

tomatoes, sliced
fresh basil leaves, whole
Instructions:
1. Heat olive oil in small frying pan.
2. Arrange desired amounts of cheese, tomato, and basil leaves between slices of bread. Place in frying pan.
3. After one side is nicely grilled and cheese has begun to melt, remove from pan.
4. Add more olive oil to pan and place sandwich back on pan, ungrilled side down.
5. When both sides are evenly grilled, remove from pan and serve.
This is probably my all-time favorite sandwich. I make them all the time for a quick meal, or to have with soup. Olive oil makes a wonderful grilled sandwich, much better than butter in my opinion. I like the olive oil flavor. This isn't the kind of thing that really needs a recipe of course because it's so simple, but it's just something I thought I'd share for anyone who's tired of eating plain old grilled cheese sandwiches with American cheese (bleh!) and butter.
This also looks quick and delicious! May I request a non-sweet pumpkin recipe? ^_^
ReplyDeleteI'm basically out of food right now, so when I go to the farmer's market on Saturday I'll look around for exciting things to cook, like pumpkin.
