Pepperoni Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich

by Logan Taylor, Social Media Coordinator

A grilled cheese sandwich with an Italian twist.

Serving: 3 sandwiches

Ingredients:

6 slices of bread (I use French bread)

3 tablespoons butter spread

1 ½ cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (you can also use slices of mozzarella)

21 slices of pepperoni

¾ cup marinara sauce

Directions:

1. Spread about a ½ tablespoon of butter on one side of each slice of bread.
2. Spread ¼ cup of cheese on three slices of bread, on top of the unbuttered side. Spead 7 slices of pepperoni on top of the cheese for each of the three slices. Spread ¼ cup of marinara sauce on top of pepperoni for each of the three slices. Spread another ¼ cup of cheese on top of the sauce. Place remaining slices of bread on top, to form sandwiches (with butter side facing up).
3. Place frying pan on the stove and turn to medium heat. Once hot, carefully place on the sandwich in the frying pan, cooking the bottom buttered side until golden and toasty and the cheese is melty. Then carefully flip over and cook until the other side is also toasty and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. If cheese doesn’t melt to your desired consistency, you can briefly microwave sandwich for about 10-15 seconds before eating.
