Instructions
- Butter the Bread: Spread butter on the outside layers of each slice of bread.

Notes
Notes:
- Caprese Style: Use ripe tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes and add fresh basil leaves.
- Spicy Chipotle: Add chipotle mayo inside the bread and pepper jack cheese for extra heat.
- Mediterranean Style: Swap mozzarella for feta and add olives with a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
- Vegan Option: Use vegan mozzarella and vegan butter for a plant-based version.
