Dividing the ingredients evenly, layer cheese on the unbuttered side of half of the bread slices, then add the tomato slices.

Top each with another slice of bread, butter side out.

Grill in the skillet, turning sandwiches over once, until the cheese melts and the bread is evenly toasted. Serve immediately.
