This creation is credited to my hubbie. He taught me how to make the unbelievably scrumptious grilled cheese sandwich his dad made for him as a kid. When I'm particularly stressed by graduate school work, he makes this to warm my heart and tummy.
We buy fresh sourdough bread, or sometimes make a loaf of sweet country bread in our breadmaker machine. But for grilled cheese, I find tangy sourdough to be the yummiest. Drop some Light Smart Balance or other non-dairy butter substitute onto an iron skillet (preferably) or frying pan. Take two pieces of bread. On one, spread a bit of vegan mayo. On the other, place some vegan cheese of your choice. You don't need tons of cheese, because the mayo adds a lot of depth to the sandwich. Place the two slices of bread in the skillet and allow them to pan fry, mayo and cheese sides up, of course. Check the bread every minute or so until you reach the brown color you're looking for (I prefer mine just lightly browned so as to retain the bread's full flavor). If desired, add a fresh slice of tomato before smushing the sandwich together! A true country version of the grilled cheese sandwich.
