Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup softened butter
  • 1/2 tsp dried dill
  • 1/2 tsp dried basil
  • 8 slices of bread of choice
  • 8 oz of cheese of choice, sliced
  • 1 medium tomato sliced
  • handful of fresh basil about 3 large leaves or so per sandwich

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your griddle or skillet while you prepare the sandwiches.
  • In a small dish, mix the butter, dried dill, and dried basil and then spread a thin layer on each slice of the bread.
  • Stack the cheese, tomato, and basil on the non-buttered side of the bread and place on the hot griddle. Put another slice of the buttered bread on top to complete the sandwich - buttered side up. Continue this step to complete all 4 sandwiches into the pan.
  • Let the sandwiches cook over medium/high heat about 2 minutes and flip them over to toast the other side, and then serve.
