Leave the other piece in the skillet with the butter side down. Place sliced meatballs, flat side down across the entire surface of the bread, top with cheese and place the other piece of bread, butter side up on top. Smash down gently with a spatula and carefully flip sandwich over when the first side becomes golden and toasty. Smash gently ith a spatula and toast until the second side of the sandwich is golden and crispy and the cheese is melty. Remove from heat and serve hot with a side of ItalNOM Fried Potatoes!
