Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 4 slices Sara Lee® Artesano™ Bread

  • 1/4 tsp. fresh or dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp. Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • In a medium skillet set over medium-low heat, add the butter and melt. Place two pieces of toast side by side.
  • To each slice of bread, add a slice of mozzarella, 9 pepperoni, and another slice of mozzarella. Place remaining slices of bread on top.
  • Cook on each side for about 3 minutes or until the cheese is melty.
