Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 medium-sized Tomato
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Wash the spinach leaves and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Slice the tomato into thin, even slices and set aside.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread. This will be the side that is grilled.
Preheat a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet.
Add one slice of cheese on top of the bread in the pan.
Layer half of the spinach leaves and a few slices of tomato on top of the cheese. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper for seasoning.
Place another slice of cheese over the tomato and spinach layers.
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up.
Cook the sandwich over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, pressing down slightly with a spatula, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for 1 minute before slicing it in half.
Repeat the process for the second sandwich.
Serve warm and enjoy your Grilled Cheese with Spinach and Tomato!
