Ingredients
- 2 pieces Sourdough bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 medium, thinly sliced Red bell pepper
- 0.25 medium, thinly sliced Zucchini
- 0.5 cup Spinach leaves
- 0.25 small, thinly sliced Red onion
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Step 2
Sauté the sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion for 2-3 minutes until softened. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Step 4
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto a clean surface or cutting board. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly on top.
Step 5
Layer the sautéed vegetables and fresh spinach leaves over the cheese.
Step 6
Top with the remaining shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing up.
Step 7
Heat a clean skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich onto the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden and crispy and the cheese begins to melt.
Step 8
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until the bread is golden and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 9
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for 1 minute before slicing in half. Serve warm and enjoy!
