Tomato-Basil Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

This was a nice twist on the normal grilled cheese sandwich :)

Tomato-Basil Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Ingredients:

3 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 tsp dried basil flakes
1 tomato, sliced
Mozzarella cheese, finely shredded
Sandwich bread slices

Directions:

Mix olive oil and basil flakes together. Slice tomato and dip slices in the olive oil mix, making sure to cover both sides. In the meantime, butter the bread slices. Spray the skillet with Pam. Lay one bread slice butter side down on hot skillet. Lay a few tomato slices on the bread, sprinkle a handful of the cheese on top and cover with other bread slice butter side up. Flip just like a regular grilled cheese sandwich. Enjoy!
