Ingredients You Need for The Ultimate Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwich [Vegan]
How to Prepare The Ultimate Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwich [Vegan]
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat, then bring down to medium-low and add the oil until it's warmed.
- Add the slices of bread, and spread butter on the inner sides if you like. On one of the slices of bread: add the vegan cheese shreds, then top with tomato slices, spinach, and vegan cheddar slices. Place the other slice of bread on top of all of this and press down.
- Cook the sandwich for 2-3 minutes, then carefully flip the whole thing over. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until all the cheese has started to melt and the bread is getting brown and crispy. Be careful it doesn't burn, though! A technique to keep everything from burning, but still getting the cheese nice and melty, is to turn off the heat once the bread is browned, then put a lid on the pan and take it off the burner. This essentially steams the whole thing so it finished melting the cheese but doesn't burn the bread. I leave this for 2-3 minutes, then it's ready! (Another option is to simply throw the sandwich in the microwave.)
- Serve with ketchup, hot sauce, or whatever you like.
