Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Marinara Dip

Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add crushed tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 10 minutes.
Blend for a smooth consistency, if desired, and set aside to keep warm.
Assemble the Grilled Cheese:

Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Sprinkle garlic powder and Italian seasoning on the buttered side for extra flavor.
On the unbuttered side, spread a thin layer of marinara sauce. Add a generous amount of shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side facing up.
Grill to Perfection:

Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Grill the sandwich for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted inside.
Let the sandwich rest for 1 minute, then slice and serve with the warm marinara dip.
