Grilled Cheese and Tomato Sandwich

January 6, 2012 By Cynthia Ferich (Goch)

Let’s take a favorite classic comfort food, “The Grilled Cheese”, and switch it up a bit.

For each sandwich:

2 slices of whole grain bread
3-4 slices fresh tomato
4 slices of Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
Olive Oil
4 Fresh Basil Leaves
Salt and Pepper to taste

Heat a griddle or frying pan.  As the griddle is heating, brush one side of each slice of bread with olive oil.  Lay one slice of bread on griddle olive oil side down on pan.  Add two slices of fresh mozzarella cheese on top of the bread.  Layer the tomato slices and fresh basil leaves, sprinkling with salt and pepper to taste.  Add the remaining cheese slices, and top with the second slice of bread (olive oil side up).  Cover the sandwich with a small lid, steaming the cheese.  As the bottom (pan side) becomes golden brown, carefully flip the sandwich to brown the other side, still covering with a lid.  When golden brown on each side, remove from pan and cut in half or into triangles.

Great for lunch or an after-school snack.  Add a salad for a fast and light dinner.

About Cynthia Ferich (Goch)

After writing and self-publishing “MaMa Mia Cucina” in 2007, Cynthia's writing, cooking and culinary teachings evolved into being as an entity surrounding food, fun, family and friends.

In an effort to capture her family’s ‘old world’ Italian recipes for future generations to enjoy, her grandmother, ‘Noni’, and Cynthia joined forces. "She measured, I wrote, and we cooked."

During her grandmother's latter 80 years, she traveled in memory through her life, as they shared in stories of a lifetime and long ago. As they shared this final chapter in her life, what Cynthia soon discovered through all of the measuring, cooking, sharing in the love of a family, and in the love of a friendship, was the passion for cooking, and a love that nourishes us all… It’s all about the FOOD!
