Grilled cheese sandwiches can be a dietary disaster or a nutritious treat.  Try making them this way; the taste is almost the same.  It's faster, too.

Low-fat Grilled Cheese-Plus Sandwich

• 2 slices bread  (whole wheat, rye, high fiber or your choice)
• 2 slices fat free (or reduced fat) cheese
• cooking spray
• fillers (thinly sliced tomato, shreds of thin lean ham or smoked turkey, sliced pickle, onion, pickled peppers or pickled beets, horseradish, mustard or whatever you prefer)

Use a Teflon-coated griddle or skillet for best results.  Place a slice of cheese on the bread.  Add blotted tomato or pickle slices, onion or other filler.  Add another slice of cheese and top with bread. 

Serve with a hot soup on cold, rainy days and you have a tummy-warming, filling, healthy treat!
