Grill the sliced bread, either on a pan grill or bbq, place the slices on the prepared cookie sheet. Divide the topping between each slice of bread. I added a little extra cheese on top. Then place the sheet in the hot oven and bake for about 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
