Ingredients
  

4 slices of sourdough bread

1/2 cup fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced

1 medium ripe tomato, sliced

1 cup fresh spinach leaves

1/4 cup balsamic glaze

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Sandwich: Begin by laying out your sourdough bread slices on a clean surface. Drizzle one side of each slice with olive oil. This will help achieve a beautifully golden and crispy exterior.

    Layer the Ingredients: On the non-oiled side of two slices of bread, start layering the fresh mozzarella cheese followed by tomato slices, fresh spinach, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

      Top It Off: Place the remaining two slices of bread on top, with the oiled side facing out.

        Heat the Grill/Pan: Preheat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Once heated, carefully place the sandwiches on the skillet.

          Grill the Sandwiches: Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side or until golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the sandwiches and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the cheese melts and the bread crisps up.

            Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for a minute. Cut in half, drizzle some additional balsamic glaze on top if desired, and garnish with fresh basil leaves.

              Enjoy: Serve with a side of your favorite chips or a fresh salad for a delightful meal!
