This easy snack combines the best elements of a grilled cheese sandwich and mozzarella cheese sticks—namely toasty bread, gooey cheese, and marinara for dunking. Go as light or as heavy as you’d like on the garlic powder.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Reduced-calorie multigrain bread

4 slice(s), very thin

Garlic powder

¼ tsp, or to taste

Light mozzarella string cheese

4 stick(s)

Store-bought marinara sauce

¼ cup(s), warmed

Instructions

  1. On a cutting board or work surface, roll each bread slice into a thin, slightly larger piece. Sprinkle the garlic powder evenly over the bread. Arrange 1 cheese stick on each bread slice and roll the bread around the cheese.
  2. Preheat an air fryer, if necessary, to 390°F to 400°F. Coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray and arrange the bread-cheese sticks in the basket, seam side down; coat the bread with cooking spray. Air-fry until the bread is toasted and the cheese melts, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce.
  3. Serving size: 1 cheese stick and 1 tbsp sauce
