Griddle or large skillet
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons harissa
- 4 slices sandwich bread
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
- ½ cup Monterey Jack cheese
- 4 tomato slices

Stir together the mayonnaise and harissa. Spread onto 4 slices of bread.
Pile the grated cheese onto two of the slices of bread, and flatten. Be sure you have good coverage on the bread. Top with tomatoes slices. Top with the remaining two bread slices.
Melt a little butter in a heated skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and loosely cover. Cook for five minutes. Flip, using a spatula, and add additional butter if needed. Loosely cover the skillet, and cook for another 3 - 5 minutes. Remove, slice in half and serve warm.
