How to Make 3 Cheese Toasted Sandwiches

  1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix well to combine.
  2. Spread the cheese mixture evenly onto 3 or 4 slices of bread. Top with the remaining bread slices to create sandwiches.
  3. Lightly spray a large skillet with cooking spray or lightly grease it with butter. Heat the skillet over medium heat.
  4. Carefully place the sandwiches in the preheated skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  5. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet once they are cooked through and browned on both sides.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, cheesy goodness!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
