Ingredients

60 grams Reduced-fat cheddar cheese
2 Whole grain bread slices
10 grams Light butter or margarine
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Grate the reduced-fat cheddar cheese finely to help it melt easier.

Step 3

Spread a thin layer of light butter or margarine on one side of each whole grain bread slice.

Step 4

On the non-buttered side of one slice, spread the Dijon mustard evenly.

Step 5

Layer the grated cheese over the mustard-covered bread. Sprinkle freshly ground black pepper over the cheese for added flavor.

Step 6

Top with the other slice of bread, buttered side facing out.

Step 7

Place the sandwich onto the preheated skillet. Cook for approximately 2-3 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is crisp and golden brown.

Step 8

Carefully flip the toasty and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until crisp and the cheese inside is fully melted.

Step 9

Once both sides are golden and crispy, remove the cheese toasty from the skillet.

Step 10

Cut the toasty in half and serve immediately.
