2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 slices whole-grain bread
2 ounces shredded pepperjack cheese

Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.

Place 1 sandwich in the waffle iron, taking care not to push down all the way. Wait until the bread begins to soften from the heat before starting to gently close the waffle iron, about 2 minutes. Apply more pressure to the top part of the iron, eventually closing it after a total of 3 to 4 minutes. Cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining sandwich.
