Italian Grilled Cheese

Italian Grilled Cheese Sandwiches is my favorite twist to a traditional grilled cheese! Any dinner that's ready in 15 minutes is my kind of easy weeknight meal!

Ingredients

• 8 slices crusty artisan bread
• 8 thin slices mozzarella cheese (or about 1/3 cup shredded)
• 8 thin slices cheddar cheese
• 1 cup marinara pasta sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• 4 Tablespoons fresh basil leaves , chopped (optional)
• butter (for spreading on bread)

Instructions

1. Spread butter on the "outside" pieces of bread that will touch the griddle when cooking. 
2. Spread marinara sauce on the inside pieces of the sandwich bread. 
3. Layer mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top of the marinara sauce. Top with fresh basil, if using.
