    Italian-Style Grilled Cheese Sandwich


    Source of Recipe


    iVillage

    Recipe Introduction


    Give your grilled cheese sandwich an Italian twist by using mozzarella cheese and sautéing it in olive oil. Thinly sliced vegetables add flavor, color, and a bit of crunch. To get the zucchini just right try slicing it length-wise with a vegetable peeler.

    Add whichever vegetables you're using. Sprinkle again with salt and pepper and one more slice of mozzarella. Cover with the second slice of bread.

    In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sandwich to the pan and sauté until golden brown. Flip the sandwich and sauté until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown on both sides.
