Ingredients:
For the Sandwich
2 ounces roasted red peppers jarred
1 large tomato, sliced
4 slices sourdough bread
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced
For the Pesto
1/4 c olive oil
1/2 c fresh basil leaves
Salt and pepper
2 tbsp grated Parmesan
2 cloves garlic clove, peeled
2 tbsp walnuts
Directions:
In your food processor, add Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, basil, walnuts, and garlic. Pulse a few times until well incorporated. Gradually drizzle olive oil as go along with the pulsing.
Brush each of the 4 bread slices with the pesto. Toast for about 2 minutes. You can use the oven or a panini press for this step.
Add tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and roasted red peppers over the toasted bread slices. Let the cheese melt and soften the vegetables.
Top each bread with the other 2 slices of bread.
Close the panini press and toast the sandwich for 2 to 3 minutes or until done.
Slice into two. Enjoy!
Notes:
Place any leftover pesto in an airtight container, then put it in the fridge. It can last up to a week.
Feel free to add shredded mozzarella cheese instead of whole mozzarella.
You use pecans or almonds in exchange for walnuts.
You can use store-bought pesto for this recipe if you do not have a food processor.
I highly suggest using fresh ingredients for this recipe.
