Preheat a skillet or non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Spread 1 tablespoon of dairy-free butter or margarine on one side of each bread slice. Make sure to cover the entire surface evenly.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the preheated skillet.
Layer with the dairy-free cheese slices on the bread in the skillet.
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.
Allow the sandwich to cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Press down gently with a spatula for even grilling.
Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and cook the other side for another 4-5 minutes, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese inside has melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet once cooked to perfection.
Let it cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
