Ingredients

• 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
• 2 tablespoons Sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 4 pieces Thick slices of sourdough bread
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, shredded mozzarella, dried oregano, chopped Kalamata olives, and sun-dried tomatoes. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.

Step 2

Lay out the four slices of sourdough bread. Spread softened butter evenly on one side of each slice.

Step 3

Flip the bread slices over so the unbuttered sides are facing up. Evenly distribute the cheese and veggie mixture onto two slices of the bread, then top with fresh spinach leaves and thinly sliced red onion.

Step 4

Place the remaining slices of bread on top of the filling, buttered side facing out, to form two sandwiches.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and add olive oil.

Step 6

Carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

Step 7

Flip the sandwiches gently using a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, pressing lightly with the spatula to help the cheese melt evenly.

Step 8

When both sides are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your Greek-inspired grilled cheese sandwich!
