Non-Dairy Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

 
8 slices whole grain bread or bread of choice
1 recipe Creamy White Uncheez Sauce, cooled or Non-Dairy Swiss Style Cheese, sliced or shredded
Spectrum Spread, non-hydrogenated margarine, optional
 

On a cutting board or work surface, place four of the slices of bread, and spread one side of each piece of bread with 3-4 T. Creamy White Uncheez Sauce or cover with slices of the Non-Dairy Swiss Style Cheese. Top each with the remaining slices of bread. Lightly spread some of the Spectrum Spread on the top slices of bread, if desired. Lightly oil a large non-stick skillet and place over medium heat. In batches, place the assembled sandwiches with the "buttered" side down in the skillet and lightly spread some of the Spectrum Spread on the top slices of bread. Cook each sandwich for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned on the bottom, carefully flip over, and cook an additional 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned on the remaining side. Transfer the grilled cheese sandwiches to a cutting board and if using the Creamy White Uncheez Sauce, allow to cool 1 minute before cutting in half for service. Repeat the cooking procedure for the remaining sandwiches.

*Variation: add fresh or sauteed vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, peppers, spinach, mushrooms, or sprouts when assembling the grilled cheese sandwiches, for added flavor.

Serves 4
