- 8 slices white, wheat or sourdough bread white, wheat or sourdough bread
- ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons Seasoned Ranch Butter Seasoned Ranch Butter
- 4 slices cheddar cheese cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Monterey Jack cheese Monterey Jack cheese
- 8 thin slices tomato tomato, optional
Lay the bread out on a work surface. Butter one side of each slice of bread. Note: If you don't want to make the ranch butter recipe, simply spread each slice of bread with 2 teaspoons softened butter and sprinkle with ranch seasoning shaker. Heat a griddle, pan or grill pan over medium heat. Place the bread butter-side down in the pan. Top each piece of bread with one slice of each cheese and the tomatoes, if using.
Cover with the remaining bread, butter-side up. Cook for about 4 minutes on each side, until the bread is brown and toasty and the cheese is melted. Serve hot.
