Grilled cheese with Zucchini

It's summer and that means zucchini! I think we eat zucchini at least twice a week; on pizza, with pasta or just sauteed as a side. Here's a go at a delicious lunch I made the other day. Oh man, I could have eaten two sandwiches.

INGREDIENTS:
- 2 slices of really good bread, like from your favorite bakery. (Don't use regular sandwich bread.)
- 3-4 slices of monterey jack cheese (like the block cheese from the food store)
- 7-8 slices of zucchini, sauteed
- olive oil
- garlic powder
- salt & pepper
- butter

1. In a small pan heat the olive oil. Add the zucchini. Season with a bit of garlic powder, salt & pepper. Stir occasionally for a couple of minutes until tender.
2. Meanwhile butter the bread and cut the cheese. In the same pan, clean it if you wish, place the bread, cheese, zucchini and second slice of bread. Cover with a lid so the cheese melts well. Only turn the sandwich once. Serve with your favorite sides. Mine are chips & a pickle!
