Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Gluten-free bread
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free butter or margarine
- 2 slices Thinly sliced ham (certified gluten-free)
- 2 slices Gluten-free cheese (e.g., cheddar or Swiss, sliced or grated)
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet or sandwich press over medium heat.
Spread 1 tablespoon of gluten-free butter or margarine on one side of each slice of gluten-free bread.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet or sandwich press.
Layer the ham and cheese evenly on top of the bread slice in the skillet.
Place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side up.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwich (if using a skillet) and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, until the cheese is melted and both sides are crispy and golden.
Remove the tosta mista from the skillet or press and let cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing diagonally and serving.
