Vegan Grilled Cheese & Pear Sandwich Recipe š„Ŗ
Servings: 1 Sandwich
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: 5 Minutes
Total Time: 10 Minutes
Ingredients:
1 tbsp of vegan butter
1 slice of vegan cheese
2 slices of your favorite bread
1/2 fresh ripe pear
Optional: 2 slices of vegan turkey
Instructions:
Heat your pan over medium low heat and coat the bread or pan with vegan butter.
Cut your pear into thin slices and warm on pan.
Form a sandwich with your vegan cheese and a few slices of warmed pear.
Grill the buttered sides of the sandwich until lightly browned and cheese is melted, flipping when necessary. Cover your pan while cooking to melt the cheese faster. You will love the hint of sweetness the fresh pear adds to this sandwich!
Tip: Try swapping your regular bread for some sprouted bread! Itās easier to digest, lower in carbs, and higher in protein & fiber. Sprouted grain bread is also lower in gluten, and has a lower glycemic index compared to regular bread. Freeze sprouted bread right away for optimal freshness, and the butter spreads on easier when frozen!
