Sandwich Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
- 1 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
Instructions
- Preheat the Skillet: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat to ensure even cooking and a perfect golden crust for your sandwiches.
- Butter the Bread: Spread softened butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread, enhancing flavor and promoting a crisp, golden exterior during grilling.
- Mix the Cheeses: In a small bowl, combine ricotta, shredded mozzarella, and grated Parmesan cheese to create a creamy and flavorful cheese mixture.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Place two buttered bread slices, butter side down, onto the preheated skillet. Evenly spread the cheese blend over the bread, then layer with chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh spinach. Top with the remaining bread slices, butter side up.
- Grill the Sandwiches: Cook each sandwich side for about 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and gooey.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the grilled cheese sandwiches from heat, let them cool for a minute, then serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute sourdough bread with other sturdy bread varieties if desired.
- For an extra flavor boost, consider adding a sprinkle of garlic powder or Italian herbs to the cheese mixture.
- Use a spatula to gently press the sandwich while grilling to ensure even cooking and cheese melting.
- If you want to prepare sandwiches for more servings, simply multiply the ingredients accordingly.
