In a small bowl, combine the low-fat grated Romano cheese and the low-fat Greek yogurt. Mix well until it forms a creamy spread.
Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to the cheese mixture, and stir to incorporate the seasoning.
Lay the slices of whole grain bread on a clean surface.
Evenly spread the creamy Romano cheese mixture over two slices of the bread.
Top the cheese-spread bread slices with fresh basil leaves and sliced cherry tomatoes.
Place the remaining bread slices over the topped ones to form sandwiches.
Preheat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly spray it with olive oil spray.
Carefully place the sandwiches in the pan and toast them for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese mixture is warm.
Once toasted, remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them cool slightly before cutting them in halves.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat creamy Romano cheese sandwiches!
