Light Grilled Cheese
By Easy Recipe Collection
Published:
Not only is this grilled cheese sandwich faster, easier and cleaner to make, it's lower in fat and calories thanks to your toaster and microwave.
Ingredients
2 slices bread
2 slices reduced fat Cheddar cheese
Leaf lettuce or chopped spinach
Directions
Using your toaster, toast your bread to suit your toast preference.
As soon as the toast pops out of your toaster, place two slices of reduced-fat Cheddar (or other favorite of your own) between the two slices of bread. Immediately pop into the microwave on a paper towel or microwave safe plate and microwave about 30 seconds to melt the cheese.
Suggestions:
Add some leaf or chopped spinach on the cheese for an added nutrition kick. You can also use two types of cheese for a nice variety.
Slimming Suggestion: If you prefer grilling your sandwich the "usual" way, try using butter-flavored non-stick cooking spray in place of the butter on your bread.
Variation: Bagel Melt
Place 2 slices of your favorite low-fat cheese between two halves of a whole-wheat bagel. Microwave just until the cheese melts. A perfect breakfast for grab-and-go!
