How to Make Sun-Dried Tomato, Spinach, and Ricotta Grilled Cheese

Spread the ricotta cheese generously on one side of each slice of bread.
Layer the sun-dried tomatoes, fresh spinach, and mozzarella (or provolone) evenly on two of the slices.
Top the sandwiches with the remaining bread slices, ricotta side down, and gently press to secure.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter or olive oil until it shimmers.
Grill the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
Remove from the skillet, slice the sandwiches diagonally, and serve immediately.
