INGREDIENTS
4 oz Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
2 slices Whole Grain Bread
1 medium Tomato, sliced
1 tbsp Tomato Pesto
Fresh Basil Leaves (3 leaves)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven or a grill pan to medium-high heat.
Slice the tomato and set aside. If making your own tomato pesto, blend chopped tomato, basil, garlic, a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Lay the bread slices on a baking tray. Spread the tomato pesto evenly on both slices.
Layer the fresh mozzarella on one slice, then add the sliced tomatoes and a few torn basil leaves.
Top with the second slice of bread, pesto side down.
Place the assembled sandwich in the oven or on the grill pan and toast for about 5-7 minutes, until the cheese begins to melt and the bread turns golden.
Remove from heat, let cool slightly, slice in half, and serve warm.
