Ingredients

Cost per recipe $0.28 view details
  • 1 Oroweat Sandwich Thin, see shopping tip
  • 1 teaspoon reduced-fat butter or Smart Balance Light
  • 1½ tablespoons pizza sauce or marinara sauce
  • 2 tablespoons tomato, chopped
  • 1 fresh basil leaf, chopped, optional
  • 1 slice or ¼ cup shredded light Jarlsberg, light provolone or light mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat Panini maker or George Foreman grill. This melt can be cooked in a pan on the stove top, see cooking tip below.
  2. Spread outside of the sandwich thin, both top and bottom, with ½ teaspoon of butter on each. Split open and spread inside of the bottom slice with pizza sauce. On top of sauce add chopped tomato and chopped basil, if using it. Top with 1 slice of cheese. Place remaining top piece of sandwich thin, butter side out.
  3. Place in Panini maker or George Foreman grill and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until melted and golden brown. Remove with a spatula as the cheese oozes out a bit while cooking. I love it that way!
  4. Serve with a fork and knife.
