Instructions

Make the vegetable sandwich spread

3. In large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, ketchup, mozzarella, and vegetable filling. Mix until well combined.

Constructing the sandwiches

1. Spread remaining butter to one side of each bread slice. Place one slice, butter-side down, and spread 1/4th filling on it. Top it with another slice, butter-side up. Repeat to make the other three sandwiches.

2. Heat grill pan (or griddle) on medium. Carefully place two sandwiches on pan. Cook 2 minutes on each side or until crispy and golden. Repeat with remaining two sandwiches.
