- 2 Tbsp pesto (store-bought or homemade)
- butter
Instructions
- Spread a layer of butter on 1 side of each piece of bread.

- Layer on your cheese.
- Take the second piece of bread, add pesto to the un-buttered side, and put it pesto-side down on top of the cheese.

Notes
If your heat is too high while cooking, the bread will burn before the cheese melts, so make sure to cook the grilled cheese slowly and be patient.
