Dinner: Belizean Grilled Pizza

Dinner: Belizean Grilled Pizza
14 slices (7 sandwiches)
2 can low sodium tomato paste (US)
2 cups Mozzarella cheese
turkey pepperoni (US)
Italian seasoning

Directions:
Butter bread on both sides.  Add sauce to both sides of bread.  Place cheese and pepperoni on one slice.  Season both sides before putting second slice of bread on top of sandwich. Place the buttered sandwich in a hot skillet.  Brown sandwich on both sides to desired state. 

Lessons in Living:
This meal is prepared like "grilled cheese sandwiches" (buttered with Blue Bonnet and fried).  We haven't found a good way to prepare this meal without oil. Breads are made fresh in Belize so bread is generally abundant to purchase for a reasonable price.  Tomato sauce is available in San Pedro but we brought low sodium paste from the States.  Although we had some frozen, cheese is expensive on the island but worth the cost of this meal.  Turkey pepperoni from the States topped off this meal.  (The turkey pepperoni was great to season several other meals too.  Just be sure to refrigerate after opening; things spoil quickly on the island because of the warm temperatures.)  Prepare as many grilled sandwiches as people or two each depending on the appetite.  This meal was prepared for 7 sandwiches.  This was everyone's favorite meal :)>
