This has been one of our favorite recipes lately for a quick meal when we don’t have time to make an elaborate dinner…. Give it a try, it is scrumptious!

Melty American Cheeze:

1/3 cup water
4 teaspoons Red Star Vegetarian Support nutritional yeast flakes
1 tablespoon oat flour
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon tahini
2 teaspoons tomato paste of ketchup
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon onion granules
1/8 teaspoon each garlic granules, turmeric, dry mustard and salt

4 slices whole grain bread

1. To make the Melty American Cheeze, place all the ingredients except the bread in a 1-quart saucepan, and whisk them together until the mixture is smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly with the whisk. Reduce the heat to low, and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the Melty American Cheeze is very thick and smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat.

2. Place two of the bread slices on a flat surface. Cover one side of each of the bread slices evenly with the Melty American Cheeze. Top with the remaining two bread slices.

3. Mist a 9-inch of 10-inch skillet with nonstick cooking spray, or coat it with a thin layer of canola oil. Place the skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the sandwiches and brown them well on each side, carefully turning them over once with a metal spatula.
