Sweet Potato Grilled Cheese

Sweet Potato Grilled Cheese
Date// May 2023

Makes 2 Sandwiches

INGREDIENTS//
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices of bread
- Mayo or softened butter (Mayo is the best)

DIRECTIONS//
1. Poke several holes in the sweet potato with a fork. Cook the sweet potato in the microwave on high for 2 minutes, then turn it over and microwave again until soft - about 2 more minutes.

2. Cut the sweet potato in half and scoop its flesh into a medium bowl. Using a fork, mash the potato until smooth with no chunks. This should give you about 1/4 cup mashed sweet potato. Add the cheddar and stir to combine.

3. Spread half of the sweet potato mixture onto each of 2 slices of the bread, then top with the remaining 2 slices of bread, creating 2 sandwiches. Spread the mayo and evenly coat the sides of the bread facing out.

4. Heat a lidded skillet over medium heat, then place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook, covered, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown - 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve hot.
