Grilled Vegetable Sandwich

As soon as someone says Grilled Cheese Sandwich, the first thing that comes to my mind is the amount of butter and cheese involved. This is one of the main reasons why I always ended up avoiding it. So finally, to be able to eat a whole sandwich, without any guilt, I created this similar version of it, using more vegetables and relatively lesser fat.

For My Kids, cut up in stripes..

Serves 2

Ingerdients:

1 12" baguette (you can use any kind of bread that is available, even 4 slices of white bread would do)

1/4 cup finely chopped mixed bell peppers

1/4 cup finely chopped tomatoes

1/4 cup finely chopped broccoli

1 tbsp chopped onions

1 green chilli chopped (optional)

1 tbsp finely chopped coriander leaves

1/4 cup shredded cheese (I have used a mexican blend)

1 tbsp butter

Salt and pepper to taste

a dash of any herb blend

Prepped Ingredients

Method:

1. Slice the baguette horizontally into half and then again, into two sandwiches, vertically. Mix all the ingredients, except the butter, in a bowl.

2. Heat a griddle, butter the bread on the outside, and place on the griddle with the stuffing on the base bread( refer to the next pic)

3. Once slightly toasted, cover the sandwitch with the top slice, and toast on the other side, pressing it down a little.

4. Serve with a little ketchup and mustard.

PS:- Sometimes when I like to eat lesser bread, I make open sandwitches by covering the sandwiches while they are grilling. (pics follow)

Enjoy!
