A Caprese Grilled Cheese is one of the easiest and best ways to make a humble grilled cheese feel gourmet. Crispy gluten-free bread slices are layered with vegan mozzarella and fresh tomatoes. Cooked in a hot skillet until it’s crispy golden brown on the outside, and warm and gooey on the inside, you can enjoy a Gluten-free Caprese Grilled Cheese in just a few minutes!

  1. Heat a pan on medium.
  2. Spread one side of each slice of bread with non-dairy buttery spread.
  3. Assemble your sandwich by laying tomatoes on the unbuttered side of the bread and covering with vegan mozzarella. (Optional: tear up your basil and layer it in with the cheese)
  4. Add the sandwich carefully to the pan (butter side down), cook until golden-brown, lower the heat and flip, cook until everything is melty inside and golden outside.
  5. Optional: Garnish with basil and a drizzle of pesto
