Grilled Cheese with arugula

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of whole grain bread
• Butter
• 5-6 Arugula leaves, removed from stem
  
• Cheese and additional toppings (variations listed on the side) 

1. Smoked Gouda with a slice of tomato and bell pepper
2. Sharp Cheddar with granny smith apple 
   

​         Or you can make up your own combination!

1. Heat a panini press or an electric griddle to 350°F
   
2. Generously butter one side of each slice of bread. Flip slices over so the butter side is facing down and add the arugula and cheese and toppings of your choice. 
3. Place the prepared sandwiches on the hot press or griddle. If using a press, toast the sandwiches until both sides are a nice golden brown and the cheese has melted within. If using a griddle, toast the sandwiches for 5 minutes on each side, then transfer them to a parchment-lined baking sheet, and finish baking in a preheated 350°F oven for another 5 minutes; this allows the cheese to melt in the center of the sandwich.
4. Slice sandwiches on the diagonal, and serve warm
