Pesto-Crusted Grilled Cheese

Here's a great way to take a classic grilled cheese and make it even tastier for your family. Don't be surprised if they say it's the best grilled cheese  you've ever made!!

1/3 cup mayo
2 Tablespoons jarred pesto sauce
8 sourdough bread slices
4 (1 oz) provolone or mozzarella cheese slices
1 (12 oz) jar roasted red bell peppers, drained and chopped
4 (1 oz) Cheddar cheese slices

Stir together mayo and pesto sauce.
Spread evenly on 1 side of each bread slice
Place 4 bread slices, pesto sides down, on wax paper.
Layer each of 4 bread slices on wax paper each with 1 provolone/mozzarella cheese slice, bell peppers, and 1 cheddar cheese slice;
Top with remaining bread slices, pesto sides up.
Cook sandwiches in batches on a hot griddle or in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, gently pressing with a spatula., 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cheese melts.
Makes 4 servings.
