Ingredients
- 2 slices gluten-free sandwich bread
- 2 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 medium ripe tomato
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 leaves fresh basil leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by prepping the tomato. Wash the medium ripe tomato thoroughly under cold running water. Slice the tomato into thin even slices, discarding the core and stem.
Step 2
Spread the mayonnaise evenly on one side of each gluten-free sandwich bread slice.
Step 3
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the mayonnaise layer on one of the bread slices.
Step 4
Layer the tomato slices on top of the cheese slice and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 5
Place the fresh basil leaves over the tomato for added flavor and aroma.
Step 6
Top with the second slice of cheddar cheese, followed by the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, to form the sandwich.
Step 7
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter and allow it to melt, spreading it evenly across the skillet surface.
Step 8
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
Step 9
Once cooked, remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool slightly. Cut the sandwich in half and serve warm. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Classic Cheese and Tomato Sandwich!
