Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

8 slices firm whole-grain bread -- about 5x4 " each

4 tablespoons white or yellow miso

8 large tomato slices

4 thin onion slices

12 large basil leaves

1 1/3 cups reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese* -- coarsely grated

4 teaspoons butter or margarine

 

Place 4 bread slices on work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon miso over each. Top

each with 2 tomato slices, then 1 onion slice and 3 basil leaves. Sprinkle each

with 1/3 cup cheese. Top with remaining bread slices, pressing lightly to

adhere. Spread 1/2 teaspoon butter over top of each sandwich.

 

Heat 2 large nonstick skillets over medium-low heat. Add 2 sandwiches, butter

side down, to each skillet. Cover and cook until bread is golden brown on

bottom, about 4 minutes. Spread top of each sandwich with 1/2 teaspoon butter.

Turn sandwiches over; cover and cook until bottoms are brown and cheese melts,

about 3 minutes. Cut sandwiches crosswise in half and serve.
