So about a week ago I was thinking about whipping up something for dinner – I thought pizza but I did not want to make dough or buy dough. So I thought what about bread BUT I did not want it to be boring so I thought what about making it a grilled cheese sandwich with pizza ingredients! I made it and Mr.Savvy enjoyed it so much I had to take a video — he finished the first of 4 sandwiches standing up! Oh and did I mention it is SUPER SIMPLE to make. You really can use anything that you would place on a pizza ( like veggies
)
What You Need
Slices of Bread — ( I made some for myself using Gluten Free Bread ( worked great) )
Slices of Mozzarella Cheese
Pepperoni
Fresh Basil- cut very fine
Pizza Sauce
Butter
What To Do
Generously butter one side of the slices of bread.
Place 1 Tablespoon of Pizza Sauce on each slice of bread.
Place Cheese, Pepperoni, and Basil
Make a Sandwich by putting the two slices together.
Place sandwich on a skillet over medium heat.
Cook till cheese has melted – make sure to flip the sandwich.
Enjoy!

OMG — this has got my husband’s name written all over it — will be on the menu next week and I’ll be sure and let you know his response. Thanks!
This looks like something that my children & Fiance would LOVE! And the best part is that its sooooo easy to prepare! Im going to make this asap! Thanks Diva!!
Sounds super yummy and loved Mr. Savvy’s review. Too sweet!!!!
This is a good idea – we will have to try… although one thing that I normally do with regular grilled cheese – so I can make more than one at a time – is make them on my George Forman grill. It’s also faster and cooks both sides at once..I have impatient kids..I can make 4 grilled cheeses at once….
Mmmm, pizza! Put that thing on a whole wheat sandwich thin or in an Ezekiel 4:9 pita pocket and bet it’s a pretty healthy (and good) meal the kids will actually eat. I’ll have to look for the Turkey pepperoni – seems a much better alternative!
i add pepperoncinis
Made these tonight. Loved it! Will make again.
I want to try this with Canadian bacon
I made these last night for the crew (1 wife, 4 kids, 1 niece and 1 nephew plus myself) and it was a HUGE hit.
I made them in the oven 12 at a time using two jelly roll pans and they came out perfect. I also added a bit of Italian seasoning to the butter on the outside.
I am so glad you liked it
My mom makes these all the time because all my brother would eat as a kid was pizza. She had to come up with stuff like this just to get him to eat
OMG that looks SO good !
My wife can’t do pizza sauce because of tomato and GERD issues. She loves pizza. Any suggestions.
Made this tonight for dinner & LOVED it! I did use Texas Toast, which made a thicker sandwich. Next time, I will add some finely chopped onions, peppers, and black olives to the middle…. This was totally filling!
