Grilled Cheese Dippers

Ingredients

• 8 slices bread (white, whole wheat, or your favorite variety)

• 4 tbsp butter, softened

• 4 slices cheddar or mozzarella cheese

• 1 cup Hidden Foods Marinara pasta sauce, warmed, for dipping

• Optional: garlic powder or Italian seasoning for extra flavor

Instructions

1. Prep the bread:
   Lay out the bread slices on a clean surface. Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice. Optional: sprinkle a light pinch of garlic powder or Italian seasoning on the buttered side for extra flavor.

2. Assemble the sandwiches:
   Place one slice of cheese between two slices of bread, with the buttered sides facing out. Press gently to secure.

3. Heat the pan:
   Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.

4. Grill the sandwiches:
   Place the sandwiches in the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted. Press lightly with a spatula for even browning.

5. Cut into dippers:
   Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Slice each sandwich into strips or “dippers” for easy dipping.

6. Serve with sauce:
   Warm the Hidden Foods Marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave. Serve the grilled cheese dippers alongside the sauce for dipping.
