My son took to pizza from the first time I offered it to him. Knowing how much he loves pizza, I decided to do a "bait and switch" and offer him something else with a little more substance. Now he gobbles down my whole wheat grilled cheese sandwiches and it is much easier to make than pizza. I cut these into small squares for him. There's no need for ketchup for dipping since there is marinara sauce in the sandwich to give it flavor and keep it moist. Here's my recipe:
Ingredients:
1 tsp marinara sauce
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 slices whole wheat bread
1 tsp margarine or butter
Directions:
Preheat skillet over medium heat. Assemble the sandwich by spreading marinara sauce on one slice of bread. Sprinkle with the shredded cheese. Top with second slice of bread. Microwave sandwich for 30 seconds, or until the cheese slightly melts and holds the sandwich together. The bread should be very moist at this point. Gently spread butter or margarine on both of the outer sides of the sandwich. Grill until lightly browned on both sides.
