The Perfect Sandwhich Riddle

Here is a riddle I made up:

You are trying to make a grilled cheese sandwich

You have two pieces of sliced bread, a slice of cheese, and a toaster oven. The toaster heats from the top and the bottom.

One side of each sliced bread can only be exposed to heat for only one minute before it becomes uneatable. The problem is, the sliced cheese takes 3 minutes to melt like you want it to. How can you toast your sandwich in your most preferred way?

Rules:
You cannot peal melting cheese from the slice it is on.
You can have the toaster oven on or off for as long as you want.

*Make a comment with a solution if you got one. I will post the solution later.

Put cheese on slice A, set slice A on top of slice B, cook one minute

flip slice B (so that unheated side is exposed) cook one minute

remove slice B, cook one minute
