White Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

These white pizza grilled cheese sandwiches have a great pizza-ish herby flavor to them, with ooey-gooey melted mozzarella and a little Parmesan to boot. Very good, and a little different.

Cuisinart Griddler

Ingredients

½ cup ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic minced
1 teaspoon dried basil crumbled
½ teaspoon dried oregano crumbled
¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
Pinch ground black pepper
¼ cup Parmesan cheese freshly grated
2 cups Mozzarella cheese shredded
12 slices bread I used Texas Toast
2 tablespoons butter softened

Instructions

Turn on your Griddler to the griddle setting and 350 F, or heat a large skillet over medium heat.
Mix the ricotta and oil together in a large bowl.
Stir in the garlic, basil, oregano, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese.
Mix in the mozzarella cheese. The mixture will be thick. Don't be afraid to use your hands to mix it well.
Lightly butter each slice of bread on one side.
Working in batches, place slices of bread butter-side down on the Griddler or into the skillet. Top with the cheese mixture, spreading out evenly.
Add the top piece of bread butter-side up.
Cook until the bottom bread is golden brown. Flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
