When I think of summer, I immediately think of the food. Fresh summer produce and anything on the grill are my absolute favorites. When tomatoes come into season, we eat them nearly every single day. There is nothing like the flavor of a fresh tomato.

This recipe incorporates seasonal foods and keeps ingredients fairly simple in order to let the flavors of each ingredient shine. On the side, we had some simple zucchini noodles that I spiralized. Another perfect for summer ingredient.

This recipe turned out very well and my husband especially loved it. All of the flavors together were just right. Just keep a close eye on the sandwich when it is under the broiler- it can burn quickly.

For this recipe, I used Kraft cheese and all of my ingredients were from Walmart. I was impressed how fresh everything was. Especially the tomatoes and bread. This huge loaf of bread was only $1! It was perfect for this recipe.
