Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Bread (whole wheat or white)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup Green olives (pitted and sliced)
- 0.25 cup Raisins
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green olives, raisins, mayonnaise, and black pepper. Mix well until evenly combined.
Lay the bread slices flat on a clean surface. Spread a very thin, even layer of softened butter on one side of each slice.
On the unbuttered side of four slices of bread, evenly distribute the cheese, olive, and raisin mixture. Spread it out gently to cover the surface.
Place the remaining four slices of bread (butter side up) on top of the mixture-covered slices to form sandwiches.
Slice the sandwiches into halves or quarters, depending on your preference, and serve immediately. Optionally, you can grill or toast the sandwiches for added warmth and texture.
