🧾 Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to build the perfect sandwich:
2 slices of sourdough, whole grain, or your favorite bread
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (or sliced roma tomatoes)
A handful of fresh baby spinach
2–3 slices of melting cheese (like mozzarella, cheddar, fontina, or gouda)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter, softened
Salt, pepper, and optional dried herbs (like basil or oregano)
🔥 How to Make It
1. Roast the Tomatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and herbs. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15–20 minutes, until soft and slightly caramelized.
2. Prep the Spinach
While the tomatoes roast, lightly sauté the spinach in a pan for 1–2 minutes (just until wilted), or use fresh if you prefer a bit more bite and texture.
3. Assemble the Sandwich
Butter one side of each bread slice. On the non-buttered side, layer cheese, roasted tomatoes, and spinach. Top with the second slice, buttered side facing out.
4. Grill to Perfection
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwich for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
5. Slice and Serve
Cut in half, let the cheese stretch, and enjoy while it’s hot and melty!
