• Make the grilled cheese: Spread one side of each slice of bread with ½ tablespoon butter, then spread ½ teaspoon pesto on top of the butter on each slice.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the pan, then spread with ¼ cup (10 g) pesto and top with the Cabot Garlic and Dill Cheddar Cheese. Cover with the other slice of bread, buttered side up.
• Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, then use a spatula to flip the sandwich and and cook for 3-5 minutes on the other side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is completely melted. Remove from the pan and let rest for 1 minute before slicing.
• Sprinkle with the dill and serve.
• Enjoy!
