Broiled Tomato and Cheese Sandwiches

Fast, easy, and yummy!

Ripe Tomatoes
Tillamook Cheese
Country Cream Butter, Mayonnaise, Olive Oil, or your favorite salad dressing.
Fresh Bread (Try some from your local farmer’s market. Rustic artisan breads are great for these sandwiches.)

Turn on oven broiler to preheat. Slice home-style bread 1” thick, and place on cookie sheet under broiler until the bread starts to smell warm. Pull out the bread from the oven and spread on a little butter, mayonnaise, olive oil, or your favorite salad dressing.

Add cheese slices, and set under the broiler again. Watch carefully and remove as soon as the cheese starts to melt. Place thick, delicious slices of tomato on top of the melted cheese.

Sprinkle generously with freshly ground pepper, a little salt, and whatever other seasonings you like (fresh basil leaves, perhaps?) Place under the broiler again and let the tomatoes get warmed. Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and enjoy!
