Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices of bread
- 1½ cups grated cheese or 6–8 slices of Colby Jack cheese
- ½ to ¾ cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Honey (optional)
- Sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Place slices of cheese on bread and layer with sun-dried tomatoes.
- Top with another slice of bread.
- In a medium-sized non-stick skillet, add a tablespoon of butter over low heat and allow it to melt.
- Place the sandwich in the skillet and let it brown for 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the grilled cheese and brown the other side for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese has melted.
- Remove the grilled cheese from the skillet and slice the sandwich in half.
- Drizzle honey on top and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt if desired.
- Serve warm.
Notes
Using Colby Jack cheese provides a mild, creamy flavor, but you can substitute with brie, mozzarella, gouda, havarti, or white cheddar. Drizzling honey and adding sea salt enhances the flavor contrast. Cook on low heat to ensure the cheese melts without burning the bread.
