The whole family will love this vegan grilled cheese. Having all the flavors of pizza, what's not to love?

Instructions

Spread your favorite pizza or marinara sauce on bread. Layer vegan mozzarella, basil, black olives, and sun-dried tomatoes on top. Cook on both sides until golden brown.

Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

• Vegan Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Grilled Cheese
• Vegan Monte Cristo
• Vegan Grilled Cheese with Caramelized Onions and Red Pepper

Tips

• Switch out the sun-dried tomatoes and black olives for your favorite toppings. Sautéed mushrooms or vegan pepperoni would work well too.
• After making the sandwich, spread vegan mayo on the slice of bread facing you. Flip it and place it in a hot skillet so that you're cooking the grilled cheese in the vegan mayo. Alternatively, you could use vegan butter. While it's cooking, spread more vegan mayo on the top slice (the one facing you).
• To help melt the vegan cheese, place a heat-proof metal bowl or a frying pan lid over the top of the sandwich creating a dome. This works best when the lid is smaller than the pan and just covers the sandwich.
• You could also place an open-faced sandwich under the broiler for a few minutes. Some vegan cheeses melt better than others, so it all depends on which you use. You can see from my photos that my cheese could have been melted longer.
• Serve with more marinara or pizza sauce.

Instructions

• Spread marinara sauce on a slice of bread. Top with vegan mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, and basil on bread.
• Spread ½ the vegan mayo on the outside of one of the slices of bread. Place the mayo side down on a skillet. While the sandwich is cooking spread the other ½ of mayo on the slice of bread facing you. Cook until golden brown on both sides.

Notes

To help melt the vegan cheese, place a heat-proof metal bowl or a frying pan lid over the top of the sandwich creating a dome. This works best when the lid is smaller than the pan and just covers the sandwich.

You could also place an open-faced sandwich under the broiler for a few minutes. Some vegan cheeses melt better than others, so it all depends on which you use.
