INGREDIENTS
2 slices whole wheat bread
4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
1 medium tomato, sliced
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic glaze
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat.
Slice the tomato into even rounds and set aside. Tear or slice the fresh mozzarella into pieces that will fit well on your bread.
Lightly brush one side of each bread slice with the extra virgin olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Layer the mozzarella, tomato slices, and fresh basil on the un-oiled side of one bread slice.
Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the layered ingredients.
Top with the second slice of bread, oil side out.
Place the sandwich on the preheated grill pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, pressing lightly with a spatula, until the bread is toasted and the cheese begins to soften.
Remove from heat, slice in half if desired, and serve immediately.
