• 2 large slices vegan bread of your choice 
• 1 tablespoon vegan butter
• 4-5 tablespoons vegan cheddar cheese

• In the meantime, butter both sides of your bread.
• Once skillet is hot, add your bread and lightly toast both sides.
• Remove bread from the pan and spread a semi-thick layer of vegan cheddar cheese on one side of both slices of bread. Then fold the slices together to make a sandwich (cheese in the center).
