Ingredients

  • Use a blend of cheeses for extra flavor.
  • Try different toppings like mushrooms, olives, or jalapeños for variety.
  • Cook on medium-low heat to ensure the bread crisps without burning.

  • Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, on a clean surface. Spread marinara sauce on the unbuttered side.
  • Layer with mozzarella cheese, turkey pepperoni, and additional toppings.
  • Place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered side up.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Cook each sandwich for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and crispy, and the cheese melts.
  • Serve hot with extra marinara sauce for dipping.
